athumb_regen_field command, created image is not appearing in frontend.

[renjithraj2005]

When try to create thumbnail using command athumb_regen_field thumbnail getting created with different name so in front end it is not showing the updated thumbnail, showing old one. This issue is only when already generated thumbnail image is there in the disk.

This can be resolved by removing the initial image when we regenerate the thumbnails.

def create_and_store_thumb(self, image, thumb_name, thumb_options):
    """
    Given that 'image' is a PIL Image object, create a thumbnail for the
    given size tuple and store it via the storage backend.

    image: (Image) PIL Image object.
    size: (tuple) Tuple in form of (width, height). Image will be
        thumbnailed to this size.
    """
    size = thumb_options['size']
    upscale = thumb_options.get('upscale', True)
    crop = thumb_options.get('crop')
    if crop is True:
        # We'll just make an assumption here. Center cropping is the
        # typical default.
        crop = 'center'

    thumb_filename = self._calc_thumb_filename(thumb_name)
   # remove thumbnail file if already exist
    try:
        os.remove("%s/%s" % (settings.MEDIA_ROOT, thumb_filename))
    except OSError:
        # No thumbnail files initially
        pass

I'm not sure I understand the problem, but athumb isn't really meant to be used with local storage. It's pretty S3-specific. I don't think we've ran into this with S3.
