I am using the send_file method to download a file. It works fine on my
local machine. But it''s not working on the server - it returns a blank
file.
code:
send_file Rails.root.join(''public'',
''uploads'') +
(uploaded_file.original_filename + ".filtered")
Please help.

Use send file when the files are out of the reach of the web server or when if you want to control access to the file move out of the public folder. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
