similar to: Multiple file uploads - only one file object gets posted

Hi all, I was wondering about the class used when rails receives file uploads. Sometimes it appears to be a File, and other times it is a StringIO. Also it has methods such as original_filename that don''t appear to belong to either of these classes. I ask because I''m trying to work out how to test my fil upload related models and controllers. Is there some standardised way of

Hi, I am using gettext to let my web application know several languages. All works fine, but since I integrated it, my functional tests don''t work any more. I keep getting the error message: NoMethodError: undefined method `cgi'' for #<ActionController::TestRequest:0xb77f7f88>. All right, TestRequest doesn''t have a cgi method. Therefore I just included this into

I am checking the file size of an uploaded file and storing it in a filesize column. It will work just fine when the user uploads any files other than images (jpg,png,gif). Word, Excel, Powerpoint, .zip and more all work fine. This is my model asset.rb that handles the file upload. def newfile=(newfile_field) self.filename = base_part_of(newfile_field.original_filename) self.filetype

Hi I hope someone can shed some light on this have searched a lot but found nothing definite. This happens on Ubuntu and Fedora 2. I am having a problem with uploading small files (images gif or jpeg under 19k). According to ruby documentation these are stored temporarily as StringIO objects rather than temporary files (as is done with the larger file uploads). The problem is that when it

I don''t understand why my program does not get the file that I try to upload. It returns the following error when I try to upload a small file: NoMethodError in LogfileController#create You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! The error occured while evaluating nil.original_filename #{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/logfile.rb:9:in `file=''

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

Is there a simple way of forcing file_column to download file from given (ex. in form) url instead of uploading it manualy? I know: http://blog.caboo.se/articles/2006/01/09/file_column-magick-and-versions require ''open-uri'' Attachment.find_first.filename = open(url) if not working as expected... what is interesting is that: >> @a =

I would like to integrate the uploadify plugin with a standard rails form. However I can''t figure out how to add a new field and have it get submitted with the file upload. I added a name field into the form, but the valued does not get submitted. <% dialog_file_description = ''Photos'' allowed_extensions = [:jpg, :jpeg, :gif, :png] max_size = 20.megabyte

I am trying to implement the uploading of a file to a remote server I get error while trying to write the file on the server. The error I get is the following: undefined method `rewind'' for #<String:0x2aaaad062eb8> It seems to be treating my file as a string instead of a File object. --------- Code is below ------------------ VIEW: <%=

In my app, the user can upload images. Rather than shoving the image data in the database, i want to put the filename and content type into the db, then rename the image with its record''s id number, and then save it into a local folder in my app folder. (hardcoded for now) All the details are being saved to the db ok, so as far as i know the "picture_file=" method is fine.

Hi, i have small problem when you upload file by input type=file to rails then in rails it is represented by one of following StringIO, File, Tempfile Is it all?

I''ve seen posts of a few people who have this problem, but not a single response about solving it. I can''t upload .png files, but .jpg and .gif work fine. When I upload just a .png, my action gets a StringIO object which breaks when I try to copy the upload to an absolute location. However, using multiple-field upload, as long as one of the to-upload files is *not* a .png, all

I have a form with multiple file upload fields (1-10), of which 2-10 are optional. So i need to cycle thru all file fields and pick only those that have a file attached. Selecting only one file in the form, the paramters look simple: "image"=>{"file_1"=>#<File:/tmp/CGI344.4>, "file_2"=>"", "file_3"=>""}, so I

I need to send an ics file to a web service, so however it gets there it will arrive as a string. Is there another way to begin Icalendar''s Parse than with a file? I''m currently sending the file using the curl command... curl -v --data-urlencode ics at invite.ics http://127.0.0.1:4567/ics2event I''ve tried curl''s --data-binary and sinatra''s

Hi, I''m trying to use mongrel 0.3.13 with Rail 1.0 Believe it or not, on OS/X it works well for weeks at a time. On linux I''m getting Input/output errors after anything from a few hours to days, never more than a week. Once they start they don''t stop. The only pattern I''ve seen is that it always (seems) to happen while rendering an rhtml file.

Hey Folks- I''m trying to setup a new test/spec harness for testing Merb. I was wondering if there is a way to mock the Mongrel request, response objects easily to test my handler without actually running a server? I can easily do the env hash but I''m not entirely sure what needs to go in the request StringIO object that gets passed into my mongrel handler''s
