I want to store images in the database and I'm having trouble with
my SQLFORM. I've copied the example from the manual but find that
the image doesn't go into the database on 'new'. I'm on web2py
Version 1.63.3

Apologies in advance if it's a typo.

1) With no argument (="insert" form) I get an exception in one of the
functions called from
form.accepts

IntegrityError: (1062, "Duplicate entry '0' for key 1")

2) With an argument (="update" form) it seems to work OK though I
only tried changing the title

3) With the delete box ticked at the bottom of the form the record
doesn't seem to be deleted

4) I think the new version of web2py automatically stores the
filename, but I'm not sure this will work with my model

In the model:

db.define_table("images",
      SQLField("title",comment="optional"),
      SQLField("notes", "text", comment="optional"),
      SQLField("image_blob", "blob", readable=False, writable=False),
      SQLField("image", "upload", uploadfield="image_blob"),
      SQLField("thumbnail_data", "blob", default=None,
writable=False,readable=False),
      SQLField("filename", length=128 ),
      timestamp
      )

controller:

def image_edit():
   form = None
   formFields = ['title','notes','image']

   if len(request.args):
      records = db(db.images.id==request.args[0]).select()
   if len(request.args) and len(records):
      url=URL(r=request,f='download')
      form=SQLFORM(db.images,records
[0],deletable=True,upload=url,fields=formFields)
   else:
      form=SQLFORM(db.images,fields=formFields)

   if form.accepts(request.vars,session):
      response.flash="Image accepted, id = " + str(request.vars.id)
   elif form.errors:
      response.flash='image upload failed' + str(form.errors)
   return dict(form=form)

Thanks, Chris
