Hi

its never advisible to put the image into the db only the path of that image will be stored in the db..if you store the whole image into the db then the db size will be very large..and its not the best thing to do..So store only the path and not the image..

Thanks

Let me Explain You How To Upload File into Database :

In This Case we have table called "boxes" for saving your file and Model name Boxe

Column Names ==>> file_name | file_data | file_content Type Data ==>> string | blod | string

Correction at :

def download_file

...

  :type => @download_warez.file_type)

The correct is : :type => @download_warez.file_content)

and the model name not Boxe but Box.
