I'm following the documentation trying to figure out how to correctly save 
a filename to my uploads database.

Basically i have the same code as the website shows in it's examples


def submit():


 import datetime


 form = SQLFORM(db.uploads, fields=['up_file', notes], deletable=True)


 form.vars.up_date = datetime.datetime.now()
 form.vars.username = auth.user.email


 if request.vars.up_file != None:
 form.vars.filename = request.vars.up_file.filename


 if form.process().accepted:
 redirect(URL('data', 'index'))
 elif form.errors:
 response.flash = "form has errors"


But my form doesn't appear to be validating correctly. It allows me to hit 
submit even if a file is not supplied. This leads to a error being logged, 
so I want to avoid things getting submitted.  My only thought is that it 
could be my requires not working correctly

ext_regex = '|'.join(quikr_utils.all_ext)

db.define_table('uploads',
    Field('username', 'string'),
    Field('filename', represent = lambda x, row: "None" if x == None else x
[:45]),
    Field('up_file', 'upload', uploadseparate=True, requires=[IS_NOT_EMPTY
(), IS_UPLOAD_FILENAME(extension=ext_regex)]),
    Field('up_date', 'datetime'), 
    Field('up_size', 'integer', represent= lambda x, row: quikr_utils.
sizeof_fmt(x) ), 
    Field('notes', 'text'))

>>> print quikr_utils.all_ext
['fasta','fa','fna','fasta.gz','fa.gz','fna.gz']

Any ideas?
Thanks!
