it's stated very clearly on the book that it's not possible to "migrate" between uploadseparate or not. You should have possibly to move within one request millions of files. """ ATTENTION: You cannot change the value of uploadseparate from True to False without breaking the system. web2py either uses the separate subfolders or it does not. Changing the behavior after files have been uploaded will prevent web2py from being able to retrieve those files. If this happens it is possible to move files and fix the problem but this is not described here. """ you can do that by hand if you need to, just move every file in a subfolder that is composed as the first 2 letters of the file itself.
