Django Image Upload: IOErrno2 Could not find path -- and yet it's saving the image there anyway?
- by Rob
I have an issue where the local version of django is handling image upload as expected but my server is not. Note: I am using a Django Container on MediaTemple.net (grid server)
Here is my code.
def view_settings(request):
<snip>
if request.POST:
success_msgs = ()
mForm = MainProfileForm(request.POST, request.FILES, instance = mProfile)
pForm = ChangePasswordForm(request.POST)
eForm = ChangeEmailForm(request.POST)
if mForm.is_valid():
m = mForm.save(commit = False)
if mForm.cleaned_data['avatar']:
m.avatar = upload_photo(request.FILES['avatar'], settings.AVATAR_SAVE_LOCATION)
m.save()
success_msgs += ('profile pictured updated',)
<snip>
def upload_photo(data,saveLocation):
savePath = os.path.join(settings.MEDIA_ROOT, saveLocation, data.name)
destination = open(savePath, 'wb+')
for chunk in data.chunks():
destination.write(chunk)
destination.close()
return os.path.join(saveLocation, data.name)
Here's where it gets whacky and I was hoping someone could shed a light on this error, because either a) it's the wrong error code, or b) something is happening with the file before it's completely handled. To recap, the file was actually uploaded to the server in the intended directory - and yet this err msg continues to persist.
