Hello all, I''m quite baffled/agitated by this. I''m using paperclip to allow upload of images to my application. This is working fine, it''s saving the the images exactly where its supposed to and it''s saving the image objects as its supposed to. The problem is that I can''t display these images in the browser. I''ve had this issue in a couple other applications I''ve made and just got around it by having paperclip save to the public folder and pull from there to display the desired image. But I feel as though I should get this sorted out. So here goes: My image model (paperclip) --------------------------------- class Image < ActiveRecord::Base class ContentType IMAGES = ["image/png", "image/x-png", "image/jpg", "image/jpeg", "image/pjpeg", "image/gif", "image/bmp", "image/tiff"] GIF = ["image/gif"] def self.allowed_types IMAGES + GIF end end belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true has_attached_file :attachment, :path => ":rails_root/uploaded/:attachable_type/:attachable_id/:id_:style.:extension", :url => "/images/:id_:style.:extension", :styles => lambda { |attachment| ContentType::IMAGES.include?(attachment.instance_read(:content_type)) ? { :thumb => ["80x80>", :png], :preview => ["400x400>", :png], :large => ["1000x1000>", :png] } : ContentType::GIF.include?(attachment.instance_read(:content_type)) ? {:thumb => ["80x80>", :png], :preview => ["400x400>", :gif], :large => ["1000x1000>", :gif] } : {} }, :default_style => :preview validates_attachment_size :attachment, :in => 1.kilobytes..24.megabytes validates_attachment_content_type :attachment, :content_type => ContentType.allowed_types ... code omitted end ------------------------- I have included this line in my ''config/environments/development.rb'' file config.action_dispatch.x_sendfile_header = "X-Sendfile" and I have the mod_xsendfile.x.x.so in my vhost: ---------------------------------------- <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName myapp.local DocumentRoot "/Users/<username>/Sites/myapp/public" RackEnv development XSendFile on #XSendFileAllowAbove on XSendFilePath /Users/<username>/Sites/myapp <Directory "/Users/<username>/Sites/myapp/public"> Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> </VirtualHost> ---------------------------------------- When I print out the image.url and the image.path I get: /images/2_preview.png?1315164150 /Users/<username>/Sites/myapp/uploaded/avatars/1/2_preview.png Any help here would be greatly appreciated. I''m at a loss as to how this is not working. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Files in the public directory are served as-is, so yours will be in / uploaded/:attachable_type/:attachable_id/:id_:style.:extension --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Ok that makes sense. Thank you. Though I''m still not getting this to work. Where do I go from here? I created the images_controller and created routes for them. I looked into this and saw some one else doing this in their controller to handle ''documents'' (pdfs, jpgs, pngs, etc) ---------------------------------------- def show @image = Image.find(params[:id]) respond_to do |format| @imgstyle = params[:style].blank? ? # ERROR B?C imgstyle == nil params[:format].blank? ? nil : params[:format].to_sym : params[:style] mime_type = case @imgstyle when :thumb, :preview then "jpeg" when :original then "tiff" end # render show action format.html {} # send original for download format.original { |format| send_file @image.path(:original), :filename => @image.filename } # used with image_tag helper to send file to the browser format.any { |format| send_file @image.path(@imgstyle), :type => "image/#{mime_type}", :filename => @image.filename, :disposition => ''inline'' } end end ------------------------------ and it makes sense, but how do I get my show action for Character (characters/show.html.haml) to contact the images_controller for the show action? Again thank you for your help. Definitely pointed my in the right direction. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

why don''t you use the standard and simple way ? this is what I have in my app : model Product has_attached_file :product_image, :styles => { :left => ''225>x238>'', :big => ''600x600>''} # product_image_file_name :string(255) # product_image_content_type :string(255) # product_image_file_size :integer(4) # product_image_updated_at :date time uploads are saved in /public/system/product_images/:id/big/* /public/ system/product_images/:id/left/* /public/system/product_images/:id/ original/* I display the pictures with the following url :: @product.product_image.url(:left) @product.product_image.url(:big) @product.product_image.url On 14 oct, 03:36, Keith Raymond <li...-fsXkhYbjdPsEEoCn2XhGlw@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Does anyone have any ideas on this? > > Please I''m still desperate for an answer > > -- > Posted viahttp://www.ruby-forum.com/.-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Try adding "public" to your path: :path => ":rails_root/public/ uploaded/:attachable_type/:attachable_id/:id_:style.:extension " Then you can just link directly to it: <img src="/uploaded/:attachable_type/:id/:id_:style.:extension" /> On Oct 13, 6:36 pm, Keith Raymond <li...-fsXkhYbjdPsEEoCn2XhGlw@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Does anyone have any ideas on this? > > Please I''m still desperate for an answer > > -- > Posted viahttp://www.ruby-forum.com/.-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

For those of you who recommend the public folder, the only problem with that for me and I''m sure others is that we may want some uploads to be private, and prevent users from simply browsing the public directory on our webapps to look at every-bodies uploads. By using our own custom folders we can prevent this with very little code. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
