BEGIN 
    filename := 'C:\NEW\IMAGE_FILE\' ||:block_name.item_code ||'.jpeg'; 

    Read_image_file(filename, 'JPEG', 'OPTIONS_IMAGE');

Believe it or not, I am having the same trouble. I have to test to see if the file is there before attempting to read it... UTL_FILE requires that the database is able to read the directory.

function CF_1Formula return Char is
LOC VARCHAR2(40):='C:\';
PIC VARCHAR2(500);
out_file Text_IO.File_Type;
BEGIN
  out_file :=Text_IO.Fopen(LOC||:EmployeeId||'.JPG', 'r'); -- r is read only
  PIC:=LOC||:EmployeeId||'.JPG';
  RETURN PIC;
    exception
      when others then 
     RETURN 'C:\3'||'.JPG';
     
end;
Solution for Exception, Simply place a file 3.jpg that you want to show in case of exception. e.g. No_Image.Jpg
