[RanjanKumar Raj]

Sir can you please send me an example to upload an image to the server (with user defined file name and display message if name exist) at specific folder "images" and save its path to the mysql database. And again display the images uploaded on the server folder by using the path which is stored in database.
Sir i am able to upload image on server specific folder or the image directly in database in bolb datatype but i become failed to store its path in database and fetch the uploaded image using the path in database. So please guide me.

How does it fail?

[RanjanKumar Raj]

Then please send me a simple jsp project for uploading image on the server and its name in database and display it using jsp. Please use the MVC2 pattern. Means it should be done by the help of servlet controller file.
So please.
Ranjan

In case you're really stuck on where to start, you should break your task into two separate parts:

Uploading files to your application

Serving images to the client

To manage the file upload, have a look at the FileUpload helper module available in the Apache Commons library. Have a look here: http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/using.html

Second, to serve images to the client, you need to create a Servlet, commonly known as an Image Servlet. If you search on this, you'll find lots of examples.

I just added an article to the ServletsFaq titled ImageServlet (http://faq.javaranch.com/java/ImageServlet) which shows how to serve images (and other multimedia content) from your Servlet-based web application.
