similar to: File upload directly to DB

I''m uploading files to a mysql database, using a mediumblob size. Following the wiki here: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoUploadFiles , I got past the first mysql 500kb limitation with the max_allowed_packet = xM trick, setting it to 1000M. However, as the person at the very bottom of the wiki notes, I too cannot upload more than around 10mb. I also tried the suggested

Hello All, I''ve run into a snag. (I apologize in advance. I''m not very good at system administration.) I''m building an app that allows users to upload files. Up until now I have been storing the files on the file system, but tonight I decided to change the app so the files are stored in the database as a longblob. I thought everything was working great, until I

I''m trying to use one form to upload a file to the file system and insert a title and description field into the database. I have no problem uploading files to the file system using the code from http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUploadFiles There are more fields on the form than need to be inserted into the database, name and file. I need to pull out these extra fields

hi, i''m sure some of you had come across this problem before, but i was unable to find the answer after spending quite some time searching. i have a basic file uploader, code similar to rails recipe (or rails manual). problem occurs when i try to upload files (images) greater than 500KB. the largest file i could upload was 493KB and i''ve uploaded a bunch files under 490KB and

Hi I am using rails 2.3.8 with mysql 5.1. In my attachment model the validation was validates_attachment_size :attachment, :less_than => 2.megabytes, :message => "Upload file size should not exceeds 2 MB" And my /etc/my.ini has max_allowed_packet = 16M The above worked perfectly. But now I need file limit size as 10 MB instead of 2 MB. So I changed validation

Hi All, I''ve been trying to create an upload form page that will take an uploaded file, and save it to a directory on the server. I''ve tried following a couple of posts on this list, and the HowTo from here: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoUploadFiles Here is the code in my view: <%= start_form_tag ( {:action => "upload"}, { :mulipart => true }

following the instructions at http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUploadFiles, I am able to upload to an explicit and existing directory (i.e. c:\ror\app\public\images\photo.jpg). However, when I try to upload to a folder that does not exist, say, c:\ror\app\public\image\newfolder\photo.jpg, I get the following error: Errno::ENOENT in Images#create No such file or directory -

Hi, I have written upload action and it seems to be working in general but image files consistently get corrupted. They differ in both content and size. I have uploaded a small text file without any problems. Everything is running on my laptop, WEBrick is the server. Code: *********** begin @filename = @params[''NewFile''].original_filename

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I would like to extract an image BLOB from my database and display it alongside some other information on my ''edit'' page. I read the information here http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/HowtoUploadFiles and that was really helpful. However, it still isn''t clear to me how I would get access to the image in my views if

I''ve installed Puppet and am installing Dashboard on CentOS 6. I''m running into an ''undefined method'' when installing the dashboard. To install Puppet Open Source, I ran: > rpm -ivh

I''ve been trying to add a basic file upload feature (just based on the Rails Recipes example), but I find that it only works with the webrick server and not my lighttpd 1.4.11 server. I''m running Rails 1.1.2 on OSX. The upload silently fails with both firefox and Safari, even with the useragent hack and with any size of file/image. My lighttpd config is pretty standard as

I have a problem uploading files into a MySQL database (4.1.18) using Lighttpd (1.4.11) and the MySQL C api (2.7). All the files that I upload are truncated at about 65K, though, the temp file is the correct length. No errors are thrown and the max_allowed_packet is set to 10GB. I''m running on OSX. Any thoughts or pointers are much appreciated.

I''m trying to implement the simple file upload example at http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUploadFiles However, I''m getting an error "No such file or directory" when I submit the form... Errno::ENOENT in Admin/websites#create No such file or directory - /images/websites/websitename.jpg I believe it''s relating to the code in the model: def

Hi, I''m using InstantRails 1.0 (rails 1.0 and ruby 1.8.4). When I try to upload a video file ~11MB, IE just hangs on me. Seems like WEBrick hangs too and I can''t connect from another IE. I end up manually killing WEBrick. Would anybody know the problem here? I had to increase my mysql max_packet_size parameter in order to upload in the first place so mysql doesn''t

I have file uploads to the database and stored in a longblob working on our client extranet, except that it kills mysql/activeRecord on files bigger than about 200kb. (is there a reason for this - running mysql 5.0.18, lighttpd or webrick on winxp??) So I''m now thinking about whether its possible to do either: 1) upload a file into #rails_root/some_folder/ instead of

I am having trouble uploading files through a form when using Apache (production) or Lighttpd (development). The odd thing is that when I force script/server to load Webrick, the upload works just fine on the same code-base. When it fails, the upload just sits there forever. Some browsers eventually return an error code, others spin for a long time... Anyway, it never recovers. The file is a

Hi. I''m setting up an upload form for internal users of a Rails site, and I''m trying to use the Upload Progress Bar plugin from http://sean.treadway.info/demo/upload/. I followed the directions as set out in the Rails Wiki (http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Upload+Progress+Bar). Basically the problem is no progress bar or any upload information shows up. In WEBrick, I

We have our rails application running using lighttpd and everything seems fine with Firefox, but when the client is Explorer some media doesn''t get transferred from the server correctly. With Webrick, Content-Length is set when a request is made for an mp3 file. Using Firefox with lighttpd, Transfer-Encoding is set to chunked, so the Content-Length field isn''t required.

Hello, I have an upload controller which uploads file into a mysql database and it works fine on my local machine where I am using webrick but when I use it on a live apache server then it gives me the following error: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in <controller not set>#<action not set> Mysql::Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near
