web2py URL are not based on filepaths, with the exception of files in the
/static folder. All other URLs are in /app/controller/function/list/of/args
format. You cannot access a file in the /uploads folder simply by putting
/uploads in the URL. Rather, the URL must point to a controller and
function that handles retrieving and streaming the file (the
/default/download function in the welcome app does this for files that have
been uploaded via a DAL upload field).
