Unhandled exception after failed upload

Description

My friend is trying to install MediaGoblin but it breaks when he tries to upload a JPG. That might not be the end of the world by itself, but there's an unhandled exception when the code tries to save information about the failure, so it's really difficult to tell what went on. This bug is about fixing that exception.

comment:3 by Brett Smith, 12 years ago

I think the problem here is that we don't really define a MediaEntry's relationship to MediaData in the MediaEntry class. There is a relationship, through the media_entry column of the MediaData class, but we don't adequately describe that to SQLAlchemy. That's why media_data is marked as TODO in db/sql/models.py. Without that information, when we try to process an image with GPS and/or EXIF data (not sure if it's one or the other or both), SQLAlchemy flips out because the MediaData looks like an orphan, even though the relationship is described in the SQL well enough.

The proper fix would be to give the relationship a good definition in the MediaEntry class, much like the other attributes have, but I'm going to need to do some reading to figure out the right way to do that.

Hi brett,

excuse us for taking sooo long to notice your bug!

Your bugreports is one of those with the flusherror. Do you have a way of reproducting it, so that we can also reproduce it?

I probably have a fix for this. But I would like to understand how this can happen at all. It should not happen.

I'll take this one and set it to be fixed for the next release.

Keywords: need-review added

Okay.

Pushed suggested fix to elrond/sql/media_data. Waiting for review and a "go, merge it".

And I have no clue, why this fails only in some cases. It should either fail always (for images with exif/gps data) or never. I don't get it.

Merged! The branch looks really good. Let's assume it fixes it unless proven otherwise. :)
