However, when uploading the same file in Windows, the filename is saved on the disk as test.jpg (all lower case), but in the database is still referenced as Test.jpg. Since the filesystem in Windows is not case sensitive, this is not really much of an issue immediately. If you however, then copy your Django based site back to a Linux based machine, you will get a missing image, as it is expected to find the file ""Test.jpg"" in the filesystem, however the file is ""test.jpg"". In this case, this can become a bit of a problem. I am not sure if the problem is related to Django or Python on Windows."
