Import file not working

[gpetho]

When I browse the sample test file from the original task issue and click the "Import file" button, nothing happens, the table containing the data in the csv file is not displayed.

@iwmstjp , please check this, the application should be in a testable state on Wednesday.

After copying the .metagenomongo.csv to flask-version/metagenomongo the fields are now displayed in the top line of the application, but the import file button still does nothing. After I browse test_dept_sample_db.csv from my computer and click on the button, nothing happens. The lines of the table are not displayed, and there is no error message.

Could you run the app in the MetagenoMongo directory? The run command will be python flask-version/metagenomongo/app.py I added the error handling for FileNotFoundError to the latest version.

[gpetho]

When I do that, I get a different error, which is (kind of as expected)

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'uploads\\test_dept_sample_db.csv'

The root directory of the repository doesn't have an uploads subdirectory, which makes sense, that subdirectory belongs to the Flask application.

Thank you for your reply. I added uploads directory in the root directory.

I added uploads directory in the root directory.

Right, that's obviously a workaround, but we don't want to do that. As I said, that subdirectory belongs to the Flask application, it has no business being in the root directory of the repository. Just to test what happens if I create an uploads directory in the root directory, I created one on my machine now, it doesn't change anything. Obviously the FileNotFoundError disappears, but the behavior doesn't change. The name of the selected file disappears and changes back to "No file selected.", the table is still empty, there is no error message or anything in the terminal.

sample.csv Could you try importing this file?

[gpetho]

That seems to work, it import this:

[iwmstjp]

Could you share your previous file which can not be imported?

test_dept_sample_db.csv
