Selects and Long Raw columns - HELP

I can't for the life of me figure out why this does not work against a long raw column:

select content from mediaContent where id = 1238;

Where 'content' is a LongRaw column in the 'mediaContent' table.

I keep getting the following error message:

ERROR:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes

any ideas?

Thanks
