Re: PIL issue opening an image file

@Steve, very well. I concede. It's just that it was not the first time I thought he could be more respectful in his approach. He has acknowledged and apologised for this type of behaviour previously. My concern is that those types of unhelpful responses could lead to newcomers feeling that this

Re: PIL issue opening an image file

So, I am making headway. Thanks to the gentlemen who nudged me onto the right path. Quick word to Bruno Desthuilliers: while I appreciate that you have greater experience and might find others' endeavours ridiculous, you could be more helpful and respectful in your tone. Do you see a difference

Re: PIL issue opening an image file

Thanks Daniel, makes sense. I gather that what Bruno meant to say on his soapbox was that the file is in the HTTP request object and can/ should not be accessible from the hard disk? I was familiar with that, as the file upload dialogue does the job of reading the file off the disk and into

Re: PIL issue opening an image file

Bruno, the file being uploaded has nothing to do with the deployment server. When you edit your Google profile to change your avatar, does the file upload dialogue browse a Google server? On Fri, Nov 26, 2010 at 4:50 PM, bruno desthuilliers < bruno.desthuilli...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > On 26

Well, Bruno, if I knew exactly how to solve this I wouldn't be sitting here taking your snooty remarks, would I? I am asking because I do not know how to go about it. On Fri, Nov 26, 2010 at 4:50 PM, bruno desthuilliers < bruno.desthuilli...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > On 26 nov, 15:03, Sithembewena

Re: PIL issue opening an image file

If I was handling the photo in a view, I'm sure I could get the path information out of request.FILES['filename'] - but I am trying to upload it in a model. Regards, Lloyd On Fri, Nov 26, 2010 at 4:33 PM, Sithembewena Lloyd Dube wrote: > Thanks Daniel, > > Using photo.path

Re: PIL issue opening an image file

Thanks Daniel, Using photo.path causes it to try to find the image in my MEDIA_ROOT, which is not what I need. I need a way to get the path from the image upload dialogue as encircled in the attached image. The image is currently on my desktop and not in my media root and I need to get the

Re: PIL issue opening an image file

I found the issue: it is the path to the image. When I change the problem line to image = Image.open(os.path.realpath('C:\Users\Lloyd\Desktop\Lloyd.png')) it works, but I cannot hard code the path and I cannot predict where the user will try to upload a file from. Isn't there a way to

PIL issue opening an image file

Hi all, I have a Photo model which should take an image, generate a thumbnail and save both the original and the thumbnail images. I registered the model in the admin site, but when I select an image to upload and click 'Save', I get an error as follows: Request Method: POST Request URL:
