I too have this issue with using SQLFORM.factory to edit.
My model looks like:
db.define_table('upload_file',
Field('doc_type', 'reference document_type', required=True,
label=T('Type')),
Field('pdf_name', 'upload', label=T('PDF Document'),
uploadfolder=os.path.join(request.folder, 'uploads',
'user_data')),...)
my controller looks like:
...
edit_mode = len(request.args) > 0
if edit_mode:
id = int(request.args[0])
q = db.upload_file.id == id
rows = db(q).select()
for row in rows:
for field in row:
if field in db.upload_file.fields:
db.upload_file[field].default = row[field]
...
form = SQLFORM.factory(db.upload_file, fields=fields,
submit_button=T('Add to Print Queue') if not edit_mode
else T('Update Queue'),
upload=URL('download'))
...
If I am in edit mode and hit the "Update Queue" button, I get the validation
error "Please select a file", even though I have prepopulated the defaults.
I have to click the "Choose File" button to select a file *again, *then it
works.
Please help.
Thanks.
