Django File Upload

Here is the code in views:

def index(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        a=request.POST
#        logging.debug(a["title"])
#        logging.debug(a["file"])
        #form = UploadFileForm()
        form = UploadFileForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
        #handle_uploaded_file(request.FILES['file'])
        if form.is_valid():
            handle_uploaded_file(request.FILES['file'])
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/')
    else:
        form = UploadFileForm()
    return render('upload.html', {'form': form})


def handle_uploaded_file(file):
#    logging.debug("upload_here")
    if file:
        destination = open('/tmp/'+file.name, 'wb+')
        #destination = open('/tmp', 'wb+')
        for chunk in file.chunks():
            destination.write(chunk)
        destination.close()

Here is the code in models:

class UploadFileForm(forms.Form):
    title = forms.CharField(max_length=50)
    file  = forms.FileField(type="file")

Here is the code in upload.html:

{% block upload %}

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="/upload/">

    {% csrf_token %}
    <table>
        <tr><td>
            <input type="file" value="title" name="title" id="title" /><br />
            <input type="submit" value="Submit" id="Save"/>
        </td></tr>
    </table>
</form>
{% endblock %}

After I select a file, then press the submit button, an error appears:

AttributeError at /upload/

'WSGIRequest' object has no attribute 'chunks'

Request Method: POST Request URL: http://www.mywebsite.com/upload/ Django Version: 1.3 Exception Type: AttributeError Exception Value:

'WSGIRequest' object has no attribute 'chunks'

Exception Location: /usr/src/wpcms/views.py in handle_uploaded_file, line 63

Any ideas what I am doing wrong here? Am I forgetting a settings line? Or, an import line? Thank you.

settings.py is:

There are multiple issues. Here is a fixed version that works:

1) Change your template to use the actual form:

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="/upload/">
   {% csrf_token %}   
   <table>
       {{form.as_table}}
    </table>
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" id="Save"/>
</form>

2) Update your form to remove unnecessary type in the FileField:

class UploadFileForm(forms.Form):
    title = forms.CharField(max_length=50)
    file  = forms.FileField()

3) Update your view to add the CSRF:

def index(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        a=request.POST
        form = UploadFileForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
        if form.is_valid():
            handle_uploaded_file(request.FILES['file'])
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/')
    else:
        form = UploadFileForm()

    c = {'form': form}
    c.update(csrf(request))
    return render_to_response('upload.html', c)

Hope this helps!
