similar to: file_column / Rmagick "invalid image" when image is valid

So ive recently finished up my first RoR application and made sure it all worked right on the windows machine i developed it on. then deployed it on GeekISP.com which runs Open/Free BSD. I had to jump through a few little hoops to get it working and set the permissions for file_column to create directories, but it still doesnt work right. When i go to add a new item to the database and try

Hi, I''m using the basic magick features of file_column, and while files are uploading fine without the magick options, as soon as I do something like :magick => { :size => "400x600" } I get an ''invalid file'' error. Further investigation reveals that the file is in fact invalid because something somewhere is truncating the file path:

Hi there everybody, We''re having mongrel processes slowly die on us, with a segmentation fault. I''ve seen a few other people mention similar issues.

Hi, I have a site where I wish to upload a resize a picture, and store it in the file system. The best solution that I have found for this so far is using file_column. This was working great, for about an hour, but all of the sudden I began to get the following error (only when i attempt to resize). NameError (undefined method `assoc'' for class `Magick::ImageList''):

i have a rails app with a form that allows uploading an image file. I take the image file and read it into rmagick to verify that it''s an image. For some reason I can''t catch an exception thrown by rmagick inside the app. After an invalid image file is uploaded the process just hangs. I have to kill mongrel and restart to use the app again. img =

I''m having an odd problem with RMagick. Consider the following script: ############################################################ require ''rubygems'' require ''RMagick'' Magick::ImageList.new(''granite:'').display ############################################################ Under Linux (Debian in particular), this works fine and

I''m writing a ''Mailman'' model that catches emails sent to my application (kind of like backpack, I think). The trouble is that I''d like to save image attachments in the same was that file_column saves them--in fact, I''d really like to use a simple assignment like photo.image = attachment to save the image in its proper place. However,

Hi When I submit the form with field_column, the actual image is not uploaded, only temp files are crreated and I dont see actual file created and the image file name is not in the database and get "fieldWithErrors".

Hello, I had a problem cropping images with file_column. These are my settings: file_column :image, :magick => { :versions => { :thumb => "80x80>", :medium => "150x150>", :square => { :crop => "1:1", :size => "50x50!" } },

I know this works from the command line: % convert ''svn-book.pdf[0]'' first-page.png The above example will only process the first page of a PDF. This is great for creating a thumbnail of the ''cover page'' of a PDF, and it avoids the CPU load required to process a huge file. (in this case, the svn-book.pdf is 300 pages) How would I accomplish this using

I am using the excellent file_column, but have run into an issue. I am wanting the user to be able to *not* upload an image if they so choose. Then I am trying to determine if that column is empty or not, and display a generic image if that column is empty. I have tried both of the following code blocks: <% if @newsentry.image -%> <%= link_to(image_tag((url_for_image_column

Hi, kind of "noob" question probably: what should one do to process images uploaded with file_column beyond a simple resizing? Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I haven''t cracked the source of file_column just yet - but has anyone worked out a way to snag images via URL instead of a file upload? Optimally I''d like to have my clients be able to upload a file, or enter in a URL to store as file on the system. Any/all help would be cool. -- seth at subimage interactive http://www.subimage.com/sublog/ -------------- next part

I''m working on a photo gallery and I''m using File_column to handle the uploads of the files and create my thumbnails, but does anyone here have any idea how to have a watermark (opaque text maybe) placed over one of the versions? Any ideas on how to go about this would be great. Even if it''s just straight RMagick code, that would be fine too. Thanks in advance for the

Hi, Currently I''m using the file_column plugin to upload images and save multiple copies of each at 3 different resoltions: file_column :name, :magick => { :versions => { "thumb96" => "96x150>", "medium250" => "250x400>", "large480" => "480X640>" } } I am wondering if

Tracked down the source of my problem... It seems that Rmagick isn''t properly cropping/resizing GIF or PNG images when uploaded via file_column. I can upload JPG files just fine. Originally I had installed ImageMagick via Debian''s apt-get and built the rmagick gem using "gem install rmagick". This wasn''t working so I uninstalled ImageMagick and tried to
