Right, I see where you said you're getting them from the file system, and you said they are 0 bytes, but you don't seem to have shown the code where you get the file name or try to read the file. The code you posted just looks like it reads a record from the db, so I don't how we can help you from that (but maybe someone else will, I don't know). I also don't understand if you still need help
