If you think it is a CORS problem, just for testing purposes in nginx you
can add the below to the server block in
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ckan_default and then reload nginx.
add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';
add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' '*';
If you are loading binary files from a windows environment that can cause
issues. You will need to open it as a binary type.
files={'upload': open(file, "rb")}
