Note, response.download gets the table and field name from the filename --
it then uses that information to find the file. If you use SQLFORM.factory
to upload the file and use its default naming or create a custom name for
the file, then it will not have the proper name structure for
response.download to identify the db table/field and find the file. If you
need to store a file manually, see
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/06/the-database-abstraction-layer#More-on-uploads
.
