Howdy - I wrote a very simple application to receive applications for work, including downloading resumes.
Starting the linked server for development locally, I can successfully upload files through the front-end web form and admin interface. By running it on a remote server (Apache with mod_python), I can successfully upload files through the admin interface, but trying on the web interface does not give the downloaded file.
I added FILE_UPLOAD_PERMISSIONS = 0644to the settings, checked two settings files and looked for similar problems described elsewhere. Drawing. I either forget the setting or have to go about it differently. Any suggestions?
For reference, the code is included.
Model:
class Application(models.Model):
job = models.ForeignKey('JobOpening')
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
email = models.EmailField()
date_applied = models.DateField()
cover_letter = models.TextField()
resume = models.FileField(upload_to='job_applications', blank=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.name
def save(self):
if not self.date_applied:
self.date_applied = datetime.today
super(Application, self).save()
The form:
class JobApplicationForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Application
def save(self, commit=True, fail_silently=False):
super(JobApplicationForm, self).save(commit)
View:
def job_application(request):
ajax = request.GET.has_key('ajax')
if request.method == 'POST':
form = JobApplicationForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
new_application = form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/about/employment/apply/sent/')
elif request.GET.has_key('job'):
job = request.GET['job']
form = JobApplicationForm({'job': job})
else:
return HttpResponseRedirect('/about/')
t = loader.get_template('employment/job_application.html')
c = Context({
'form': form,
})
return HttpResponse(t.render(c))
