Sorry if that didn't make sense, let me try again. I have small ( < 100 kb) audio files that I am getting on the fly via the gluon.tools.fetch method from a third party API. I want to insert them into the uploads folder and create entries for them in the database (as if they were data uploaded by users). I have been doing this via the store() method and have had no problems during development. On GAE, however, this is not working. Specifically, it is throwing a runtime error "you must specify a Field(...,uploadfolder=...)". My questions are as follows:
1) When using the store() method on GAE, what should the 'path' argument be? 2) Since this problem appears when using the store() method to save uploads to the database on GAE, but not when uploading files using SQLform, it seems to be a glitch. Is this the case, or am I missing something obvious? Thanks again for the help.
