Hi-
I am having issues with uploading files using page actions, which could very well be user error.
I have an upload file action set just prior to the save data action on the page I submit to in a form using standalone pages, and upload file and save data set for the file field.
With one test, I set the global upload files action. In a second test, I did not. The only time the file gets uploaded is when the global action is set, and the data never gets saved to the db.
This is what I get when I debug (please note I have used a generic upload path and filenames in place of the real ones):
In both tests I get the following for the page upload file action I have set, which appears before the save data action:
When I have the global upload file set I get this AFTER my save data action:

[upload_477] => Array
(
[path] => /my/upload/path/
[scholapp] => Array
(
[teacher_rec] => Array
(
[extensions] => Array
(
[0] => jpg
[1] => jpeg
[2] => pdf
)
[saved] => false
)
)
[var] => false
)When I have the global upload file set I get this AFTER my save data action:
[Application_upload] => Array
(
[path] => /my/upload/path/
[scholapp] => Array
(
[teacher_rec] => Array
(
[extensions] => Array
(
[0] => jpg
[1] => jpeg
[2] => pdf
)
[saved] => true
)
[judge_summaries] => Array
(
[extensions] => Array
(
[0] => pdf
)
[info] => File is not present.
)
)
[var] => Array
(
[scholapp] => Array
(
[teacher_rec] => Array
(
[path] => /my/upload/path/upload_file_name.pdf
[filename] => upload_file_name.pdf
[name] => original_file_name.pdf
[size] => 415907
[url] => https://mydomain.org/load&dtask=download&file=upload_file_name.pdf
)
)
)
)So the file only gets uploaded with the global action, and the global action gets triggered after the page actions, which means nothing gets stored in the db. Is there a trick I am not aware of in using upload file as a page action?
