On further debugging it looks node_save is not working as expected. node-save() basicall looks as below transaction(); try { //do node save related steps rollback(); }catch(Exception) Looks during node_save execution, finaly it comes to exception block. Is it a bug or I am doing some mistake before calling node_save(). Regards kamal On Wed, Oct 10, 2012 at 7:38 AM, Kamal Palei <palei.kamal@gmail.com> wrote:

Dear All I have spent quite a lot of time to attach an existing file at server side to a newly created node. I googled quite a bit, almost everywhere the examples are there for file uplaod / save and then attach to a node. Did not get any documentation thats says how to attach an existing file to a newly created node .

At a high level, my code is as below.

$node = new stdClass(); $node->type = resume' ; // a new content type created node_object_prepare($node); $node->title = My title'; $node->language = 'en'; $node->uid = 1; $file_obj = file_load($fid); $node->field_resume[$node->language][0] = (array)$file_obj; //field_resume is the machine name for file field node_save($node);

Can somebody please let me know what I am missing here? The new node is created, with no attachment. How can I get the file to attached to node.
