I'm facing the same issue with apache-activemq-4.1.0 right now. I have faced something simillar earlier. looks like it's coded in Oracle driver to accept nothing greater than 4K as a blob/byte[]/clob/char[]
below is how i fixed it (came across the solution somewhere i guess) : // create an empty blob and execute the statement ... do retain the identifier for the row oracle.sql.BLOB blob = oracle.sql.BLOB.empty_lob(); ps.setBlob(4, blob); ps.execute(); //use the identifier retained above to get the handle to the empty blob and write the blobData (>4k) PreparedStatement st = connection.prepareStatement(getBlobHandleForOracleQuery); st.setInt(1, rowID); ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery(); rs.next(); blob = (oracle.sql.BLOB)rs.getBlob(1); OutputStream os = blob.getBinaryOutputStream(); try { os.write(blobData); os.flush(); os.close(); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); throw new SQLException("Error in writing BLOB data : "+e.getMessage()); } This happens only with oracle (far as i'v seen .. sybase and mysql are good with bigger data as well).
