Error when uploading image

[Steadicat]

When uploading an image with width and height fields, I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:\Program Files\Python\lib\site-packages\django\core\meta.py", line 1948, in save_file
    setattr(new_object, self.width_field, getattr(original_object, self.width_field))

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'image_width'

source:django/trunk/django/core/meta.py#311, lines 1941 onwards:

    def save_file(self, new_data, new_object, original_object, change, rel):
        FileField.save_file(self, new_data, new_object, original_object, change, rel)
        # If the image has height and/or width field(s) and they haven't
        # changed, set the width and/or height field(s) back to their original
        # values.
        if change and (self.width_field or self.height_field):
            if self.width_field:
                setattr(new_object, self.width_field, getattr(original_object, self.width_field))
            if self.height_field:
                setattr(new_object, self.height_field, getattr(original_object, self.height_field))
            new_object.save()

When I upload the image for the first time original_object is None, so getattr(original_object, self.width_field) fails. It probably should not be executed.

The comment above the if condition says "if they haven't changed" but the code says "if change". One of them must be wrong.

Indeed "if not change" seems to fix it (though I couldn't try what happens when I don't change the image, see #201).

Closing because it's old and may have been fixed.
