I am working on a small model mixin called attachment_kung to make attachment_fu polymorphic, so you no longer need a different table and Model class for every associated attachment (Productimage, Ad_doc, etc). All you really need is one model and table to handel all your attachments - in some cases, anyway. I have the code working, but have run into one small hitch that I can''t seem to

Hi, My S3 bucket is located in the US I have attachment_fu working when using file system storage I have sw-swf upload plugin working with my S3 account but I can not get attachment_fu to work with S3 storage. the error I get is : AWS::S3::RequestTimeout in Upload filesController#create Your socket connection to the server was not read from or written to within the timeout period.

Hi all.... Admittedly I''m new to Rails and trying to find my way but I''m having an issue with uploading documents with attachment_fu. I have a form where I''m uploading multiple attachments (using AJAX to add file_filed_tags). That seems to work pretty well. The problem is I can''t seem to get the content_type to work as I would expect. For example, if I use

I just installed attachment_fu and for some reason, it seems to be looking in the wrong location for my images. I have a Product model that belongs to a photo model. the photo model has the attachment_fu installed and configured like so: class Photo < ActiveRecord::Base has_attachment :content_type => :image, #Allow standard image formats :path_prefix

First off, I''m not trying to spec attachment_fu, I know it''s been tested. But, I added some code to that model that I do need to test. Basically, I need to somehow fulfill the "uploaded_data" property so I can actually run my tests(otherwise they fail because of validations). The "uploaded_data" field is what would grab the multipart data from form. Here

Hello, Recently attachment_fu stopped resizing images for me. I''m puzzled because before today it was resizing them and I don''t know what''s changed. Here''s my code: class Product < ActiveRecord::Base has_attachment :content_type => :image, :storage => :file_system, :max_size => 18.megabytes,

I followed the instructions on Mike Clark''s weblog and everything works perfectly except the thumbnail column in my DB is alwas NULL. I''m using S3 as my storage system. Anyone else having this issue with thumbnails? has_attachment :content_type => :image, :storage => :s3, :max_size => 500.kilobytes, :resize_to =>

I''ve got a problem in that users are deleting a paranoid model through the application, including dependents. Some of these dependents are paranoid too, but not the attachments. (I''m using DB file storage.) I need to be able to un-delete these things and I''m now wondering if acts_as_paranoid will work with models that use attachment_fu? If so, in what model to I add the

I have this class: class Logo < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :something has_attachment :content_type => :image, :storage => :db_file, :max_size => 500.kilobytes :thumbnails => {:web => ''150x100'', :pdf => ''150x100''}, :processor =>

Hi, I''m having trouble with attachment_fu on windows not generating any thumbnails on the fly. I started out trying to incorporate this into my app without success then tried implementing Mike Clarke''s tutorial (http://www.clarkware.com/cgi/blosxom/2007/02/24) and got the same problem. I have resolved some gotchas I found in the "attachment_fu on Windows" thread

Hi, Im developing an image upload using pothoven-attachment_fu (3.2.8) and aws-s3 (0.6.3). I want to store my files in Amazon S3. I follow all the instructions using attachment_fu and s3 my model has_attachment :content_type => :image, :storage => :s3, :max_size => 1.megabyte, :thumbnails => { :thumb =>

Hi guys. I''m building a rapidshare-like app, and as such each user has a disk quota. It''s possible to prevent a file save if it exceeds the free space, but I searched for an way to do the same _during_ the file upload. Using flash it''s apparently possible, but I don''t want to use flash. One way to do it is via Apache configuration. But, is there any other way

It seems that attachment_fu is a pretty popular plugin (it''s great), but I''ve been having a terrible time trying to figure out an issue when using "update_attributes". I''m storing files on the file system rather than in a database. It seems that when "update_attributes" is called with a new file, upload_data= tries to copy a file that

On the creation of a member the member''s picture uploads as it should. However, when updating the member, while selecting a new picture, an error is thrown: can''t convert nil into String RAILS_ROOT: /Users/chris/Documents/Projects/Rails/CommunityCMS/trunk Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace

Hi there, I''d like to use RMagick to watermark an image in the tmp directory before Attachment_fu saves it to Amazon S3. I took a look at the callbacks available in attachment_fu. There''s an ''after_attachment_saved'' method but this would be too late, and a ''before_thumbnail_saved'' but this is no good because it''s for thumbnails. I

Hi - I would like to iterate through a native folder and execute attachment_fu per each file. Has anyone done this before? Or have any tips or code snippets? Attachment_fu works well via form - but since I have a sizable amount of files I simply want to batch them in - just as if I were doing it via a form. Many thanks! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received

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

Hi, I use attachment_fu in one of my apps and recently I''ve realized that udpates are taking too much time. After some debugging I''ve found that attachment_fu is calling after_attachment_saved callback no mather if attachemnt has changed or not. For example this code: after_attachment_saved do |photo| logger.info "after_attachment_saved" end # in console - always

I''ve spent at least 2 hours on this one problem. On my local machine in my controller I have this: def new @page_title = "New User" @user = User.new @photo = Photo.new end All is good. Now, on the remote server I get an error when accessing the ''new'' view. If I remove @photo = Photo.new from the controller then the error goes away. This same error

Hey everyone, I''ve been using attachment_fu to upload large media files to S3 with great success in my rails application. However, it has recently stopped uploading. My app appears to be uploading to somewhere, as my browser is displaying a ''sending request to..." status message for about the right length of time. The records are also created in my application database.
