thanks survtime, actually my image is there in my folder, but while retrieving the image it is not showing up the image, In image tag i have given a src as icon.php, here is the problem it is not echo my image in the php page

header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
header('Expires: ' . date('r',time() + 864000));
header("Pragma: public");
header("Cache-Control: public");
header("Content-Length: " . strlen($contents));
$splitString = str_split($contents, 1024);
foreach($splitString as $chunk)
        echo $chunk;

Shouvik any idea why it is not working ???

Hmm ... I had a problem while server migration. I changed the path of the data directory on elggmetastrings table and it was fixed.

Maybe, you could search for the former diretory on the above mentioned table and if found, change it to the newer one ...?

actually as per my research, i found that there is no problem in the image, but after i call header, the image is coming as empty and dimension associated with that is coming as 0 x 0 so need fix the dimension ??? and any idea for this??

@Allen.jes - have you checked to make sure the database changes that myself and @shouvik Mukherjee mentioned are done? Also, could you provide a link to your site? 

@survtime - i have checked my database it looks correct, this is my site url : http://grnmystrt.com/
