Re: SuspiciousOperation exception on ImageField upload

2012-07-19 Thread Thomas Orozco
Here you're trying to upload to a directory, whose path starts with a / :
/images.

On *nix,  / means system root. Obviously your django process does not have
permission to write there unless you set that up so.

You should remove the leading slash in your upload to path. Your files will
then upload to your media root.

Then  make sure that your Web process has:

.  write access to the MEDIA_ROOT/images directory (unless the user is the
owner of MEDIA_ROOT, it won't have permission to create a directory.)

.  Execution permission on all the directories (not the files in there)
leading to MEDIA_ROOT: Execution permission on a directory means traversal
permission.

Don't just chmod -R 777 your way out of this kind of problem, you're going
to create major security holes.

Hi Binny,

Your problem sounds like one I had months ago. I got this response at the
time:

You need to make sure that the same process running your python interpreter
has write permissions to your media directory.

>From StackOverflow:
"The process that is running your Python interpreter doesn't have
permission to write into the media directory. You'll need to either chgrp
 or chrown the media directory to the same group as your Python process,
and ensure you have at least g+rwx on directories and g+rw on files."

Drop the first slash in your path name.

But with that leading slash, you're trying to save to
/images/promotors/%Y/%m/%d/, not
/home/username/projectname/media/images/promotors/%Y/%m/%d/ like you
want. That path probably doesn't exist, and Django would need
unrestricted access to your system in order to create it for you.
Needless to say, not a good situation.

That SuspiciousOperation is in place to help prevent Django from
trying to accidentally read or write from places on your filesystem it
shouldn't have access to. Just drop the first slash in the path name
(so it reads upload_to="images/promoters/%Y/%m/%d/") and you'll be all
set.
