Backgroundrb devel - Nov 2008 - attachment_fu, aws-s3 and backgroundrb

Hi,

I''m using attachment_fu to store files on amazon s3.  A background job
is currently performing the upload and I''m having a strange issue where
the very first file uploaded/created (attachment_fu uploads when creating the
object) does not get uploaded.  The db information is all all good. The model
and attachment model associated with it are saved to the db, but the file is not
uploaded. However, every subsequent file is uploaded successfully with no
issues.

It seems that maybe the rails environment isn''t being loaded on the
first shot, but the load_worker_env.rb file has the line: require RAILS_HOME +
"/config/environment"

Any suggestions? I''ve tried manually adding ''require
aws-s3'' to the load_worker_env.rb file and it didn''t work.  Is
it maybe something with attachment_fu not getting loaded or maybe the
attachment_fu config file?

Thanks for the help.

Is the request coming to bdrb worker? (put some logger statements)
Also, can you paste your worker code and how are you invoking upload
task in worker from rails?
