In general, I'd recommend doing what Brian demonstrates with variable
interpolation. However, there are times when an ERB template is
preferable, and it looks like you're doing that just fine. The upload
error you're seeing is unrelated to the template; it looks like you
might be trying to store the file to a directory that doesn't
exist...?
