I'm having some trouble getting django to play nice with image uploads. My script will create directories based on the date like so: <pre><code>file = models.FileField(upload_to='uploads/%m-%Y/') </code></pre> Now, if I create the dated directory in the uploads folder and chmod the folder to 755, the upload works fine, but if I try to chmod the uploads folder without creating the dated sub folder (which I need django to do), I am getting a permissions error. How do I make it so a folder will allow the creation of sub folders? Here is a traceback: <pre><code>Django Version: 1.3 Python Version: 2.5.2 Installed Applications: ['django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.admin', 'tagging', 'mediamanager', 'livesettings', 'projects'] Installed Middleware: ('django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware') Traceback: File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/core/handlers/base.py" in get_response 111. response = callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/utils/decorators.py" in _wrapped_view 93. response = view_func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/contrib/auth/decorators.py" in _wrapped_view 23. return view_func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/var/www/enigma-dev/enigma/mediamanager/views.py" in upload_media 24. m.upload_media(data=form.cleaned_data, params=params) File "/var/www/enigma-dev/enigma/mediamanager/models.py" in upload_media 63. self.save() File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/db/models/base.py" in save 460. self.save_base(using=using, force_insert=force_insert, force_update=force_update) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/db/models/base.py" in save_base 543. for f in meta.local_fields if not isinstance(f, AutoField)] File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/db/models/fields/files.py" in pre_save 255. file.save(file.name, file, save=False) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/db/models/fields/files.py" in save 92. self.name = self.storage.save(name, content) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/core/files/storage.py" in save 49. name = self._save(name, content) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/core/files/storage.py" in _save 166. os.makedirs(directory) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/os.py" in makedirs 171. mkdir(name, mode) Exception Type: OSError at /media-manager/upload/ Exception Value: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/www/site-dev/site/static/uploads/04-2011' </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
