Hi

I'm sure this is in the wrong group - so any suggestions for a right
group would be great! And you have my express permission to treat me
like an idiot in replies! I have a fair amount of knowledge ...
but ... obviously not enough to understand this past the basics!

I have two problems ... but only going to list one for now ...

I'm trying to use the Jim Neath code and examples with swfupload and
not having much success.

I'm using Rails 2.3.5 if that's any use.

I've already had to do this in my PhotosController:

skip_before_filter :verify_authenticity_token, :only => :create

just to get the app to ignore {play nicely?) with the
InvalidAuthenticityToken problems! And I promise I've read EVERY post
there is on the problem from Google and beyond. I've changed more code
try to solve the InvalidAuthenticityToken than I think Microsoft have
ever produced ... and still no help. More on this in another post ...

But back to my problem:

I have this as part of my photo controller code:

  def create
    if params[:Filedata]
      @photo = TripPhoto.new(:swfupload_file => params[:Filedata])
      if @photo.save
        render :partial => 'photo', :object => @photo
      else
        render :text => "error"
      end
    else ... [rest omitted]

The data is being passed to the controller I think from the log ...

Processing TripPhotosController#create (for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-05-17
21:24:26) [POST]
  Parameters: {"Filename"=>"SYTS Logo Colour - All Red.png",
"trip_id"=>"3", "action"=>"create", "authenticity_token"=>"[Omitted]",
"Upload"=>"Submit Query", "controller"=>"trip_photos",
"_worldtripper_session"=>"[Omitted]", "Filedata"=>#<File:/tmp/
RackMultipart20100517-44821-hoknr8-0>}

But I get the following error ...

NoMethodError (undefined method `file=' for #<TripPhoto:0x103d99410>):
  app/models/trip_photo.rb:13:in `swfupload_file='

I have inserted (as per Jim's instructions) the following into my
TripPhoto Class...

require 'mime/types'

class TripPhoto < ActiveRecord::Base

  belongs_to :trip
  has_attached_file :photo, :styles => { :small => "150x150>", :large
=> "320x240>" }
  validates_attachment_presence :photo
  validates_attachment_size :photo, :less_than => 5.megabytes

  def swfupload_file=(data)
    data.content_type =
MIME::Types.type_for(data.original_filename).first.content_type
    logger.warn("Data content type is: #{data.content_type}")
    self.file = data
  end

end

So I have a feeling it has something to do with the line:

self.file = data

But I really have NO IDEA what is wrong! I've spent days on this and
it's not through lack of trying ...

So any help please would be fabulous!

Thanks

Darren

Oh ... BTW ...

If I make the line

@photo = TripPhoto.new(params[:Filedata])

 ... I end up with the following error:

NoMethodError (undefined method `stringify_keys!' for #<File:/tmp/
RackMultipart20100517-44821-hoknr8-0>):
  app/controllers/trip_photos_controller.rb:20:in `new'

Which makes even less sense ...
