(Sorry if this ends up being a duplicate posting. I originally sent it
via gmail to the google group and I don''t know when or if it''s
ever
going to show)
Maybe I''m just looking too closely... I have a simple AAA model:
class BookCover < ActiveRecord::Base
acts_as_attachment :storage => :file_system, :content_type => :image
validates_as_attachment
end
with a simple Create controller:
def create
@book_cover = BookCover.new(params[:book_cover])
if @book_cover.save
'' something
else
''something else
end
redirect_to :action => ''show'', :id => @book_cover
rescue ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid
render :action => ''new''
end
I tried to upload an image, that was about 1.5mb in size. It would not
upload and I could not figure out why. Then I saw the docs that said
by default the max size is 1 mb. Fine, setting the :max_size to
2.megabytes let me upload my image.
My question however, is how do I trap that error / validation error?
I''m sure it''s something simple that I''m overlooking.
Thanks!

It''s just validates_inclusion_of :size... -- Rick Olson http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

In the else statement of the save I redirected back to the "new" page and I put an <%= error_messages_for :book_cover %> But didn''t see anything displayed. I''ll have to play around some more.. john --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

You can use render :action => ''new'' to show the form again, yet your @book_cover record maintains its state from the #create action. -- Rick Olson http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Like I said, I was getting confused. That''s what I get from copying and pasting from various places :) Thanks!
