I haven't written any download function yet but yes i was planning to use the download function available in the controller. I was just checking in the table by database administration.
is upload subdirectory is not the same subdirectory i am storing my file into?? I am storing the file in web2py/applications/uploads/scripts. I am creating this scripts folder inside uploads folder an dstoring my files into that.
