If I do upload_to=os.sep, I get an error: Attempted access to '/test.pdf' denied.
It's trying to upload to the root of the drive! settings.DOCUMENT_STORE_PATH is something like /var/www/testproject/ documents file = models.FileField(storage=FileSystemStorage(location=settings.DOCUMENT_STORE_PATH), upload_to=os.sep, help_text=_(u"""The file itself.""")) Shouldn't it append the location and the upload_to paths to get the target destination?
