[PhillyOnRails] Attachment_fu + production environment woes

["Randy Schmidt" <randy@umlatte.com>]

Hi,

I'm using the attachment_fu plugin to upload audio and images to a
website I am working on. Everything works great on the development
platform, however, not so great on the production server. It works
fine in production uploading audio, however, when I try to upload an
image, it uploads the file (I'm guessing since there is a pause
between when I hit the buttom to upload and being redirected) but then
it doesn't create the record or move the file to the correct location.

I initially thought it was a permissions issue but then as I started
to look in the production log, I noticed it never calls the "create"
action. I am not processing the images after they are uploaded (I'm
deploying to dreamhost and I have never been able to get rmagick to
work on their servers).

Does anybody have any ideas? Is there another way I can look at what's
going on in the production environment? Keep in mind this works 100%
in the development environment. I think my next attempt is going to be
to run it in the development environment on the production server (if
dreamhost lets me).

The model/controller/log/view are below.

Thanks,
Randy

create form:

<% form_for(:image, :url => images_path, :html => { :multipart => true
}) do |f| -%>

	<dl>
		<dt><label for="image_name">Name:</label> <span
class="formHelp">Required</span></dt>
		<dd><%= f.text_field :name, :size => 60, :maxlength => 250 %></dd>

		<dt><label for="image">Upload an Image:</label></dt>
		<dd><%= f.file_field :uploaded_data %></dd>

		<dt><label for="image_description">Description:</label></dt>
		<dd><%= f.text_area :description, :cols => 60, :rows => 10 %></dd>
	</dl>
 <p><%= submit_tag "Upload" %> or <%= link_to 'Cancel', images_path,
:class => 'cancel' -%></p>

<% end -%>


Controller update action:

def create
 @image = Image.new(params[:image])
 if @image.save
   flash[:notice] = 'Image was successfully created.'
   redirect_to images_url
 else
   render :action => :new
 end
end


Model:

class Image < ActiveRecord::Base

 has_attachment  :content_type => :image,
                 :storage => :file_system,
                 :path_prefix => 'public/images/uploaded',
                 :processor => :none

 validates_as_attachment
 validates_presence_of :name
end


Production log showing the create action being "skipped":
