Question

I’m trying to make a simple image upload form, which works until I try to save the Model called User_Image using the posted data. The error I get is this: int() argument must be a string or a number, not ‘QueryDict’ and I receive it at the line marked *****. Thanks for the help.

models.py:

class User_Image(models.Model):
    image = models.ImageField(upload_to="img") 
    user_profile = models.ForeignKey(UserProfile)
    title = models.CharField(max_length=10)

forms.py:

class User_ImageForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
         model = User_Image

views.py:

def upload_image(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
       HttpResponseRedirect("/accounts/profile")
       form = User_ImageForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
       if form.is_valid():
          im = User_Image(request.POST, request.FILES)
          ******im = im.save()
          HttpResponseRedirect("/accounts/profile")
       else:
          form = User_ImageForm()
       return render_to_response('uploadimage.html', {'form':form}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))

Answer 1

Why are you saving it to the model class directly? Try:

form = User_ImageForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
    im = form.save()
    HttpResponseRedirect("/accounts/profile")
