I'm quite new to Hobo(I built an app with 0.8 a long time ago) and I've been trying to get comfortable with using it again. I've had some troubles with file attachments, I have solved some of them and I though I would post a couple of fundamental points for those who may also be having trouble.
First: The latest version of Paperclip causes a complaint about a hash, I'm not sure why and I'm not qualified to chase the problem down. Others have had the same problem. I have installed paper clip as a plugin and used an older version. If you're like me and you don't know how to select a previous version with the plugin install, here is an example. script/plugin install git://github.com/thoughtbot/paperclip.git -r 'tag v2.2.9.2' I'm not sure what the newest version of paperclip that will work is, but I know it's at least a few revisions back. I picked this tag because its age coincided with the tutorials that I found. The next problem that I found is that Ruby 1.9 is not supported in older version of paperclip. This required switching to 1.8.7 to get things working. With these two tiny pieces of information, I could have saved many hours trying every upload related recipe on hobocentral without success. I've seen a few other posts about problems, with uploads so I hope this helps. I'll see if I can get the latest tutorial using Ajax and paperclip for file uploads. If there is someone who knows of more ideal solutions to these problems, please share. This may seem like a trivial problem, but it's issues like this that present the biggest deterrent for those of us that are new to Hobo. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hobo Users" group.
