Can’t download file from the database. Failed to load PDF document

I’m trying to download a file from my database which i have uploaded using path and copy the file to a folder.
When i download the file and try to open it it says “Failed to load PDF document”.
I don’t know what i’m doing wrong. Can someone help me please? Thanks guys.

This is my upload file code:

$contract_file = basename($_FILES['contractupload']['name']); 
$contract_path = "files/contracts/$contract_file"; 
$contract_file = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $contract_file); 

if (copy($_FILES['contractupload']['tmp_name'], $contract_path)){
$sql = "INSERT INTO addemployees (contractupload) 
		VALUES ('$contract_file')";

And this is my download code:

 

  <?php

    // Include config file
    require_once "config.php";

    if(isset($_GET['id'])) { // if id is set then get the file with the id from database

    $id = $_GET['id'];

    $query = "SELECT contractupload FROM addemployees WHERE id = $id";

    $result = mysqli_query($mysqli, $query) or die('Error, query failed');

    list($contractupload) =

    mysqli_fetch_array($result);

    header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
    header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=" . Urlencode($contractupload));
    header("Content-Type: application/force-download");
    header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
    header("Content-Type: application/download");
    header("Content-Description: File Transfer");


    echo $contractupload; exit;

    }

    ?>

    Download File From MySQL

    <?php

    $query = "SELECT id, contractupload FROM addemployees";

    $result = mysqli_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');

    if(mysqli_num_rows($result) == 0)

    {

    echo "Database is empty";

    }

    else

    {

    while(list($id, $contractupload) = mysqli_fetch_array($result))

    {

    ?>



    <?php

    }

    }

    ?>

I’m listing it to my table:

   <?php

                                  $conn = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "employees");

                                if (!$conn) {
                                die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
                                }

                                  $sql = "SELECT * from addemployees";
                                  $result = $conn-> query($sql);

                                  if ($result-> num_rows > 0) {
                                 while ($row = $result-> fetch_assoc()) {

                                   echo "<tr>
                                          <td>".$row['id']."</td>

                              }
                                echo "</table>";
                              }
                                else {
                                echo "0 results";
                              }

                            $conn-> close();

                                  ?>
