Hello all, I'm quite baffled/agitated by this. I'm using paperclip to allow upload of images to my application. This is working fine, it's saving the the images exactly where its supposed to and it's saving the image objects as its supposed to.
The problem is that I can't display these images in the browser. I've had this issue in a couple other applications I've made and just got around it by having paperclip save to the public folder and pull from there to display the desired image. But I feel as though I should get this sorted out. So here goes: My image model (paperclip) --------------------------------- class Image < ActiveRecord::Base class ContentType IMAGES = ["image/png", "image/x-png", "image/jpg", "image/jpeg", "image/pjpeg", "image/gif", "image/bmp", "image/tiff"] GIF = ["image/gif"] def self.allowed_types IMAGES + GIF end end belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true has_attached_file :attachment, :path => ":rails_root/uploaded/:attachable_type/:attachable_id/:id_:style.:extension", :url => "/images/:id_:style.:extension", :styles => lambda { |attachment| ContentType::IMAGES.include?(attachment.instance_read(:content_type)) ? { :thumb => ["80x80>", :png], :preview => ["400x400>", :png], :large => ["1000x1000>", :png] } : ContentType::GIF.include?(attachment.instance_read(:content_type)) ? {:thumb => ["80x80>", :png], :preview => ["400x400>", :gif], :large => ["1000x1000>", :gif] } : {} }, :default_style => :preview validates_attachment_size :attachment, :in => 1.kilobytes..24.megabytes validates_attachment_content_type :attachment, :content_type => ContentType.allowed_types ... code omitted end ------------------------- I have included this line in my 'config/environments/development.rb' file config.action_dispatch.x_sendfile_header = "X-Sendfile" and I have the mod_xsendfile.x.x.so in my vhost: ---------------------------------------- <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName myapp.local DocumentRoot "/Users/<username>/Sites/myapp/public" RackEnv development XSendFile on #XSendFileAllowAbove on XSendFilePath /Users/<username>/Sites/myapp <Directory "/Users/<username>/Sites/myapp/public"> Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> </VirtualHost> ---------------------------------------- When I print out the image.url and the image.path I get: /images/2_preview.png?1315164150 /Users/<username>/Sites/myapp/uploaded/avatars/1/2_preview.png Any help here would be greatly appreciated. I'm at a loss as to how this is not working. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
