Django-Admin OSError: [WinError 123] The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

How to support multiple languages field in same model?
I have a model somthing like this: class MyModel(models.Model): document = models.FileField(upload_to='my_path', max_length=511) # other fields Now we are adding support for another language (say French). For this we need to save document in French language. I might add a field french_document, but what if we add another language in the future, we will again need to save document in that language. So, is there a way to support multiple languages document, without having to create extra field in the model? PS: Is this possible to do so without creating another model to save the documents, and using MyModel only? -

I build program, when in one part I have some ranking, and I would like to give users option to customize it.

Use Django to create tables dynamically
I am a beginner in Django, I wish to know if the following is possible in Django. I will have a folder called 'data' into which say I store 2 csv files 'FileA' and 'FileB'. The contents of these are not defined in any model in my Django app. I wish to read the csv files, get the header information from each and dynamically create Tables/Models using this information and load the csv data into these tables. So, for example, if FileA has 3 columns, ColA,ColB,ColC, then I wish to create a model/table named 'FileA', with 3 fields 'ColA','ColB' and 'ColC' and insert the csv data into these tables. Is this possible with Django, or do I have to create,register,migrate to do this manually each time? Any references would be appreciated. Thanks. -
