    data to copy from clob to blob column

    I am tring to copy data from clob col. to blob col. the code for that is written as below.

    declare
    a number;
    v_blob blob := empty_blob();
    amount binary_integer;
    offset integer;
    buffer varchar2(32000);
    buffer2 raw(32000);
    cursor c1 is select address ,add2, rowid from xyz for update;
    begin
    for i in c1
    loop
    select add2 into v_blob from xyz where rowid = i.rowid;
    a := dbms_lob.getlength(i.address);
    DBMS_LOB.READ ( i.address, a, 1, buffer);
    buffer2 := utl_raw.cast_to_raw(buffer);
    DBMS_LOB.WRITE(v_blob, utl_raw.length(buffer2), 1, buffer2);
    update xyz set add2 = v_blob where rowid=i.rowid;
    end loop;
    end;

    But getting folloing errors

    the above metioned has been done as I haven't intilized the blob col . I intilized it as update table_name set col_name = empty_blob();

    My mistake.

    But the same code giving same error in Linux where in Windows it is running fine.

    Just to clear At windows we hv Oracle 9.2.0.4 and on Linux we have Oracle 8.1.7.0

    Thanks
