ASP File Upload not submitting data to MySql database - mysql

Question

I have an ASP .NET Web Form application to upload files to a MySql 5.5 table.
When I click the submit button the query is executed but in the table only the Identity column gets a value.
The columns for the file attributes i.e FileName(varchar (50)) , ContentType(varchar (50))
and Content (medium blob) are blank. All other controls e.g textboxes execute insert operations from the application except the Asp:FileUpload control.
My code is as below:
Protected Sub UploadFile()
Dim filename As String = Path.GetFileName(fuCollateral.PostedFile.FileName)
Dim contentType As String = fuCollateral.PostedFile.ContentType
Dim iFileLen As Integer
Dim byteFileData As Byte()
Dim uploadedFile As HttpPostedFile = fuCollateral.PostedFile
If fuCollateral.HasFile Then
uploadedFile = fuCollateral.PostedFile
iFileLen = uploadedFile.ContentLength
ReDim byteFileData(iFileLen)
uploadedFile.InputStream.Read(byteFileData, 0, iFileLen)
Using fs As Stream = fuCollateral.PostedFile.InputStream
Using br As New BinaryReader(fs)
Dim bytes As Byte() = br.ReadBytes(DirectCast(fs.Length, Long))
Dim constr As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("constr").ConnectionString
Using con As New MySqlConnection(constr)
Dim query As String = "INSERT INTO imagefiles(FileName, ContentType, Content) VALUES (#FileName, #ContentType, #Content)"
Using cmd As New MySqlCommand(query)
cmd.Connection = con
cmd.Parameters.Add(New MySqlParameter("#FileName", filename))
cmd.Parameters.Add(New MySqlParameter("#ContentType", contentType))
cmd.Parameters.Add(New MySqlParameter("#Content", bytes))
con.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
con.Close()
End Using
End Using
End Using
End Using
End If
End Sub
The code of the button click event:
Protected Sub btnSubmit_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnSubmit.Click
UploadFile()
End Sub
