Not sure why r u converting into binary format.
You can easily store jpeg file into oracle as below
Code:
CREATE TABLE mak_test (
  iblob    BLOB         NOT NULL
)
INSERT INTO mak_test  
VALUES (utl_raw.cast_to_raw('C:\mak\mak.jpeg'));

My requirement is I need to insert the jpg file into the Oracle table through Datastage (ETL tool). Datastage is unable to read the jpg file. Hence converting to binary format and loading into table.

Please let me know if there is any alternate way to perform this insert.

Please advice.

Thanks
