Running Django v1.0.2.
I have a form with a file field. The file needs to be in PDF format, so
I have a clean routine that checks that (modified slightly to NOT wrap
lines):
def clean_PDF_File(self):
"""Verify that the content is PDF format"""
type = "application/pdf"
if self.cleaned_data["PDF_File"].content_type != type:
raise forms.ValidationError("File must be in PDF format")
return self.cleaned_data["PDF_File"]
A simplified view looks like this:
if form.is_valid():
<do valid stuff>
else:
print "Errors = [", form.errors, "]"
I'm expecting form.errors to contain the message I gave to
ValidationError(). Instead, this is what prints out:
Errors = [ <ul class="errorlist"><li>PDF_File<ul
class="errorlist"><li>The submitted file is empty.</li></ul></li></ul> ]
What happened to my error message? I can't pass the correct error
message to the form if I don't receive it in the first place. When the
field is blank, I get the correct error message that I expect to see:
Errors = [ <ul class="errorlist"><li>PDF_File<ul
class="errorlist"><li>This field is required.</li></ul></li></ul> ]
Any thoughts on what else I might try or look at?
