[Zope-DB] Help on uploading images to Postgresql

[CY]

This is a re-send. My previous email was badly cluttered up.

Hello Zopist

I need some help in uploading  .gif & jpeg files to Postgresql.

My current server  is running  Zope2.5.1 on RH8.0 with Postgresql7.2.2.

I have create a simple form to capture some digital images for uploading to
Zope server from my PC (WIn98).
However I encounter an error message (below).

The system is looking for the images in Zope server while the actual image
for uploading resides in the PC.  How I do "tell" the Zope the location of
the image file?

TQ in advance
