The bug looks like the one solved in MoinMoinBugs/AttachmentsDontWork . I though about applying that patch to see if it would solve the problem but it seems like that patch was already part of MoinMoin 1.5.1. -- RemyRoy
 No, it was not.

Please specify your ModPy version.

Applying the patch from MoinMoinBugs/AttachmentsDontWork do not solve the problem. -- RemyRoy
 Sure, because that fixed a cgi problem in code that is not used for modpy.

It looks like RequestModPy._setup_args_from_cgi_form does not work correctly for you and does not setup the file__filename__ key. This decodeArgs thinks it is a user form (text) input and tries to decode it.

I found the problem. It's a bug with mod_python and windows. Every details about it and the patch can be found here: http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2004-March/015225.html . I applied the patch and everything works fine. -- RemyRoy
