Uploading to 'Blob'

I've got a couple tables setup in my database with "Blob" fields in them to accommodate small .pdf uploads. I'm having an issue with nothing actually being uploaded unless I completely log out of the site before trying again. Usually it will work once or twice before I have to log out again. Suggestions on what to check/look for?

It's difficult to tell you what's happening without seeing actual files.

Hi Jane,
I did some more searching around the forums yesterday and got the impression that uploading to the database isn't as reliable as uploading to the file system. I therefore ended up converting my database "blob" fields to "varchar" and now upload everything via filesystem. Since maknig that change, I haven't had a problem since.
