Image upload in Django no error

Question

Trying to save images to a specific folder in django. I get no error but the file doesn't show up where its supposed to.

Here is the model:

class FileUploadHandler(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    file = models.ImageField(upload_to='/wiki/static/')

View:

def image_upload(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = UploadImageForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
        if form.is_valid():
            FileUploadHandler(request.FILES['image'])
            form.save
            return render_to_response('wiki/gallery.html')
    else:
        form = UploadImageForm()
    return render_to_response('wiki/gallery.html', RequestContext(request, {'form': form}))

Totally stumped since I don't get an error.

What do you have in your settings.py under MEDIA_ROOT and MEDIA_URL? Where is your folder wiki placed? — cezar

MEDIA_ROOT = '/Python27/Lib/site-packages/django/bin/mideastinfo/wiki/static/' — bamabacho

That could be eventually an issue. Why don't you upload the within your project? — cezar

The project is on system python. I didn't use a virtual env. I know better now, but to finish this up, I'm just going to keep it on system install — bamabacho

don't you need parenthesis at the end of form.save, i.e. form.save()

Yes, that was an oversight, thank you. However, that didn't seem to solve it.

FileUploadHandler.objects.create(file=request.FILES['image'])
