Hi all - I am quite new to python and Django but I'm starting to learn my way around. I am writing a form for uploading files but the form always seems to fail the form.is_valid() test. if I print the form errors using:
errors = form.errors print errors I get this string: <ul class="errorlist"><li>file<ul class="errorlist"><li>This field is required.</li></ul></li></ul> I can read the file name and file contents from the request.FILES object and the data is there but is_valid() seems to always return False. I guess there must be a default clean() method on uploaded files that always returns false unless I override it? I think I can write my own validator method and put it in clean_<fieldname>() in the form subclass but I would like to find out why the error is happening before I do that. BTW, I can upload the same file through the admin interface and I do not get the error.
