Hi: I am using Rails 2.3.5 with paperclip, mime-types and uploadify. So far the application is working in development environment. But when I switched to the production environment, it produced the following error. NoMethodError (private method `chomp'' called for nil:NilClass): /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mime-types-1.16/lib/mime/types.rb:665:in `type_for''

I''m writing an application where the user will be uploading many images and user feedback is essential. I''ve been trying to get the upload progress bar plug-in to work, but thus far have not had any success. I''ve downloaded Sean Treadway''s application code from his site http://sean.treadway.info/demo/upload/ and I followed the steps in his Upload

A couple questions about file_field elements. First, with code such as this: <%= file_field ''attachments'', ''filename'' %> Would the filename of the file I select be the value that''s stored within the database under the "filename" column, and then I would just add in code in my "create" controller to upload the actual file?

At: http://www.tutorialspoint.com/ruby-on-rails/rails-file-uploading.htm You can find: <%= file_field ''upload'', ''datafile'' %> I saw the file_field documentation from here: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/FormHelper.html#method-i-file_field But, still cannot get how the parameters ''upload'' and

Hi, The documentation doesn''t make it clear why both file_field and file_field_tag are both useful. What is the reason for having two instead of just one of these? Thanks, Peter

I am uploading a .csv file for importing into a database; however, this file does not need to be saved on the server. How do I get the file name of the original file? I know about the file_column plugin but I don''t need/want to save the uploaded file on the server, I just need to import it and delete it. Right now the file name get returned as some random temp file name... there has to be

Does anyone see any problem with this form? - form_remote_for(Photo.new, :html => {:multipart => true, :target => :uploader}) do |f| .form_element = f.label :photo = f.file_field :collateral = hidden_field_tag :container_id, @shoot.id = hidden_field_tag :container_type, @shoot.class.name .form_element = f.submit ''Add Photos'' The photo has a

In my item upload view I have: <%= file_field ''item'', ''file'' %> and in my Item model: def file @file #@file.original_filename # <- also tried this end def file=(file) @file=file end And if the upload bails because of errors (and renders the same page), all other fields (text_field, text_area, etc.) retain their inputted values, but the file

Does anyone know how to validate if a file has been selected using a file_field control? I want to ensure a file has been selected before the associated action is selected. Presumably something like validates_presence_of something ? Any pointers most appreciated... John -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi Gang, I''m trying to figure a way to set an attachment to an email by allowing the user to browse for a file to send with the mail. I thought that I could use file_field to do this - but having no luck. HAs anybody got a working example of how to achieve this? Or is it the wrong way to go? TIA, Eric.

Hi, I need to upload files in my application I am using following code <tr> <td width="125">Upload Document:</td><td width="400"><%= form.file_field("filename") %></td> </tr> But I want that the file field that gets displayed in my browser should not be editable. i.e user should be able to select the file through the

Hi all, I have a really really annoying problem that''s driving me nuts with file_field and paperclip and having to upload images everytime a form is edited even though the user is quite happy with the currently uploaded image or loose the previously uploaded image. This seems to be caused by the rails file_field helper not storing the data that has been read in from the db in the same

I''m new to ruby and rails, so sorry if this is a simple question. I''ve found lots of examples that demonstrate uploading pictures, but I need something simpler. Could someone post a simple example of uploading a text file, saving the file in an object and then "puts" the object text. I''m really getting lost in two steps: 1. How to get from file name to

When I do file_field within a form_for things are fine... but within a form_remote_for, with nothing else changed, I find that the params does not even have the element document[uploaded_file] even though it is definitely present in the HTML source in the form. Obviously the file upload fails. Am I missing something? Or has someone else faced this? Or is this a known bug? Rajesh

Hello! I''m using Rails 3, Uploadify, to send images to S3. Right now all the images being uploaded to S3 have the MIME: application/octet-stream I''d like to fix that but I''m getting the following error: NoMethodError (undefined method `original_filename'' for #<ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess:0x107c81998>): app/models/photo.rb:29:in

I have been trying to get a File Upload Progress system working, and I have tried using Sean Treadway''s plugin, but I can''t seem to get it to work..... Building my own seems to be the logical answer, but how would I get the total bytes received from a file? What do I call? Thanks for your help and time. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
