I noticed that you do not add auth.signature to your table definition. Does
it not work for you?
If is_my_chart was somthing I needed often like I'd be tempted to change:
(full discloser: my track record is not good lately)
db.define_table('chart',
Field('chartName'),
Field('id_workbook',db.workbook),
Field('worksheet'),
Field('file','upload'),
auth.signature,
common_filter = lambda query: db.chart.created_by==auth.user_id,
format="%(id_workbook)s %(chartName)s",
)
Then when I needed a different controller function that returned all
records I could:
db(query, ignore_common_filters=True).select(...) # copied from
http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/06?search=common_filter
Again I'm not that good at this but it seems logical.
