 Description   

If I have a Zabbix environment with old/custom images uploaded already, I cannot import images.sql because it tries to overwrite old imageid

I fixed this, by setting imageid column with AUTO_INCREMENT as follows (image_table_create.sql):

mysql> describe images;
----------------------------------------------------------+

Field Type Null Key Default Extra

----------------------------------------------------------+

imageid bigint(20) unsigned NO PRI NULL auto_increment
imagetype int(11) NO MUL 0  
name varchar(64) NO   0  
image longblob NO   NULL  

----------------------------------------------------------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

mysql>

and images.sql should have not imageid definitions, like this line (images_fixed.sql):

INSERT INTO `images` (`imagetype`,`name`,`image`) VALUES (1,'Cloud_(128)',0x89504E470D0A1A [..........]);

inserting another sql is not supported. also, your procedure most likely broken manual image upload.

if you want to insert new images, generate and xml file and import it
