Rails - Aug 2009 - paperclip - when validation fails, hold onto attachments

I''ve seen this with paperclip before I think, anyone know how to fix
it?

When my validation fails the form is re-rendered with the validation
error messages, all fine. However, the paperclip attachments that were
previously attached get lost.

Thinking that others may have done something with this and grateful if
anyone could share a solution.

Not really acceptable for users to see this behavior.

Thanks

BB.

Do you find a solution?

I do find this >

< ... but I''m not really happy with that.

Best Regards

YES!


      logger.debug "=======\r"
      logger.debug @explonaut.portrait.valid?
      logger.debug @explonaut.portrait.save if
@explonaut.portrait.valid?
      logger.debug "=======\r"

=>

@explonaut.portrait.save if @explonaut.portrait.valid?
