Well,
It doesn''t look the my issue had to deal with the content_type at all.
Rather it was related to the size of the attachment. Seems that for files <
about 16k, Attachment_fu handles them as a StringObject. If they exceed 16k
they are stored as temp files which causes issues in windows.
http://weblog.techno-weenie.net/2007/2/25/attachment_fu-tutorial
Since the files size stored in the database doesn''t matter to me I just
modified my model.
has_attachment :content_type => [''application/pdf'',
''application/msword'', ''text/plain''],
:storage => :file_system,
:size => 0.byte..1.megabytes
If anybody knows of a better way to handle this, please let me know.

Subject: [Rails] Re: attachment_fu content_type problem
I''m making some progress but I can''t figure out the error...
If I comment out this line in attachment_fu.rb my files upload but their file
size in the table is 0 (zero). If i uncomment the code the upload fails with an
invail field error. I have noticed that the code seems to work on small files.
<16k
# validates the size and content_type attributes according to the current
model''s options
def attachment_attributes_valid?
[:size, :content_type].each do |attr_name|
enum = attachment_options[attr_name]
## errors.add attr_name,
ActiveRecord::Errors.default_error_messages[:inclusion] unless enum.nil? ||
enum.include?(send(attr_name))
end
end
This is what I''m doing to upload the files
# Save the uploaded files
params[:documents].each do |doc|
@tournament.documents << Document.new(:uploaded_data => doc)
end unless params[:documents].nil?

Subject: [Rails] attachment_fu content_type problem
Hi all....
Admittedly I''m new to Rails and trying to find my way but I''m
having
an issue with uploading documents with attachment_fu.
I have a form where I''m uploading multiple attachments (using AJAX to
add file_filed_tags). That seems to work pretty well. The problem is
I can''t seem to get the content_type to work as I would expect. For
example, if I use this:
has_attachment :content_type => [''application/pdf'',
''application/
msword'', ''text/plain'']
I would expect I can upload .pdf, .doc and .txt files but I get and
Document is invalid error (document is the name of my model) I have
played around with different content_types but I can''t seem to get
consistent results.
Thanks for any help.
- Mark
Here is the document model
class Document < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :tournament, :polymorphic => true
has_attachment :content_type => [''application/pdf'',
''application/
msword'', ''text/plain''],
:storage => :file_system,
:max_size => 1.megabyte
validates_as_attachment
end
