My setup is Windows 10, Python 3.7, Apache 2.4/mod_wsgi. When I add this enctype="multipart/form-data"
in my form (just by adding this attribute, only — no files are attached to the form) I get this error when submitting:
Django Version: 1.8.5 Exception Type: RuntimeError Exception Value: generator raised StopIteration Exception Location: c:usersholisticenvsvitadminlibsite-packagesdjangohttpmultipartparser.py in read, line 337 Python Executable: C:Apache24binhttpd.exe Python Version: 3.7.3
My Django code is this:
elif request.method == "POST": rid = request.POST.get("recipe", "") title = request.POST.get("title") content = request.POST.get("content") tag_names = request.POST.getlist("tags") image = request.FILES.get("image") if rid: recipe = get_object_or_404(FoodRecipe, pk=rid) else: recipe = FoodRecipe.objects.create(title=title) recipe.content = content recipe.title = title if image: recipe.featured = image for tn in tag_names: tag, cr = Tag.objects.get_or_create( name=tn ) recipe.tags.add(tag) recipe.save()
And this is full traceback:

Any ideas what is going wrong?
PS: Same django application worked fine in Linux/Nginx/Gunicorn/Python2.7 setup. So, I guess it must some misconfiguration between Django/Python/Apache.

Your Django is very old and you need to update. This is a Python 3.7 compatibility problem that the Django devs already fixed four years ago, back when it was just a PendingDeprecationWarning on Python 3.5.
In fact, you are on the very last Django version that doesn’t have the fix. Even 1.8.6 has the fix.
