Rails attachment_fu db_file upload issue.

[Joshua Kolden]

I've recently added attachment_fu to my applicatons, and it works
without reporting any errors. Works fine in :file_system mode, but
not in :db_file mode. It seems to upload only about 45 bytes of data
instead of the entire image, image download works fine when I manually
put the data in the database.

I've created an Icon model that has the following has_attachment
settings

has_attachment :content_type => :image,
:storage => :db_file,
:max_size => 1.megabyte,
:resize => '75x75>',
rocessor => 'MiniMagick'

validates_as_attachment

I've removed the resize and processor statements and I'm fairly
confident that the issue is not related to image processing. And
again the upload works to storage type :file_system. My controller
create method looks like this:

def create
@icon = Icon.new(params[:icon])
if @icon.save
flash[:notice] = 'Icon was successfully created.'
redirect_to :action => 'show', :id => @icon
else
render :action => :new
end
end


And my 'new' view looks like:


<%= error_messages_for :icon %>

<% form_foricon, :url => {:action => 'create'},
:html => { :multipart => true }) do |f| -%>
<p>
<label for="icon">Upload An Icon</label>
<%= f.file_field :uploaded_data %>
</p>
<p>
<%= submit_tag 'Create' %>
</p>
<% end -%>

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

You might want to try posting this on the Rails list.

Would that there was a comp.lang.ruby.rails, or any usenet .rails
group. If there is a specific list on web somewhere that you
recommend that I'd appreciate if you could point me to it.

Thanks
