Hi Jelle, I haven't noticed this exact behaviour before, with objects being created and then immediately deleted, but it may be related to a ticket I filed a couple of days ago -- http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2534 -- basically, if the only core field in your model is an ImageField or a FileField, then the model won't work correctly in the admin interface. Looking at the Django souce code, I believe that what is happening is that Django is ignoring the "core=True" on your ImageField, and is saving the object (because no core fields were missed) and then immediately deleting it (because no core fields were given) As a workaround, try giving another field, such as the title, the attribute "core=True", and see if that help things. > Also I noticed that a directory media/paper_images was not created. > Also after having added the directory the upload fails... > Any ideas on how to avoid this issue? Is this a permissions issue? If you're running Django behind Apache, for instance, then the media directory needs to be writable by the user account that Apache is running under (www-data on my Debian systems, for example). Double-check the directory ownerships and permissions, and see if you can get it to work with a FileField in a simple model.
