I'm assuming you are using the forms.ModelForm for your model? Say
LicenceForm?
class LicenseForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = License
According to the doc you have to pass all relevant QueryDicts to the form
__init__
when you are creating a bound instance. In a nutshell make sure your doing:
# The view function
def handle_upload(request):
# Get request logic ...
if request.method == "POST":
form = LicenceForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
#save input data
form.save()
#continue with other stuff
