I am using devise gem in my app and a custom user controller. I have links to edit a user in both the show and index page. After signing in, if I click the edit link in users/index.html.erb or users/edit.html.erb, it redirects to user new form even though a GET request was sent.
In the route, I am skipping registrable because I am using the User controller to handle that and it works fine.
this is the route
devise_for :users, :path_prefix => 'd', skip: [:registrations], controllers: {sessons: "sessions"}
resources :users
rake routes | grep edit_user gives
edit_user_password GET /d/users/password/edit(.:format) devise/passwords#edit
edit_user GET /users/:id/edit(.:format) users#edit
users/show.html.erb
<div class="btn btn-primary"> <%= link_to "Edit", edit_user_path(#user) %></div>
This is the screenshot of the registration form that comes up when I click on the edit link in either the index or show page. It is making a get request but displaying the form for new instead of form for edit.
The is the log from clicking the edit link in the show page:

end

end

def set_user
#user = User.find(params[:id])
end
end
users/_edit.html.erb I even specified url path in the form and it still renders new form
form_for(#user, :url => edit_user_path(#user))
users/edit.html.erb
<%= render "edit" %>
users/index.html.erb
<% #users.each do |user| %>

<div class="btn btn-danger"><%= link_to 'Remove', user, method: :delete, data: {confirmation: 'Are you sure'} %></div>
<% end %>
You are making a POST request to the edit user path whereas this path is registered with the GET method. That's why you get this error.
Personally, instead of skipping the registration, I would have overwritten the registrations controller as described in the Devise wiki.
I am able to upload image files as attachments using Attachment_fu but when I try to edit/ modify images which were already uploaded, it does not work.
In my Controller I have this:
def update
#sponsor_account = SponsorAccount.find( params[:id] )
if params[:showcase_category_image_file] &&
!params[:showcase_category_image_file].blank?
#sponsor_account.showcase_category_image =
ShowcaseCategoryImage.new(:uploaded_data =>
params[:showcase_category_image_file])
***This logs - Now the file name is: ***
Rails.logger.info("Now the file name is: #
{#sponsor_account.showcase_category_image.filename}")
end
#sponsor_account.update_attributes( params[:sponsor_account] )
if #sponsor_account.save
flash[:notice] = "Showcase category #{#sponsor_account.name} was updated!"
else
flash[:errors] = #sponsor_account.errors
end
redirect_to sponsor_accounts_path
end
ShowcaseCategoryImage is defined as follows:
has_attachment :content_type => :image,
:storage => :file_system,
:max_size => 5.megabytes,
:thumbnails => { :large => [350, 100], :medium => [200, 90], :thumb =>
[35,35], :preview => [60,60] }
validates_as_attachment
The view has a file_field_tag as follows:
<%= file_field_tag :showcase_category_image_file%>
and my SponsorAccount model says:
has_one :showcase_category_image, :as => :owner, :dependent => :destroy
validates_presence_of :showcase_category_image, :on => :create
Almost similar code works perfectly ok in 'create' but here in 'update' action where there is already a value, this code is not working.
I am getting the below error msgs:
Completed 500 Internal Server Error in 1089ms
ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method `public_filename' for nil:NilClass):
Obviously this error is in the index action where it tries to list all records and their attachments. Since this attachment is empty after the update, this error is thrown in the redirect_to part.
I am using REE1.8.7 and rails 3.2.9
Please help!
This issue was solved when I added :multipart => true in the 'View'. I am using rails 3.2.9 and the rails api has this to say about the 'file_field_tag':
file_field_tag(name, options = {}) Link
Creates a file upload field. If you are using file uploads then you will also need to set the multipart option for the form tag:
I'm trying to save records in a database. Many of the column values will be taken from a http request to an api.
I have a text field and some check boxes along with the session_id in the form which will be persisted. this is posted from another controller (form_tag('results#store'))to an action called store in the results controller.
Store action:
def store
query = query_preprocesser(params[:query]) # this is in a helper
## example of resArray ##
#resArray = [[{:engine => "bing, :results => [{:Description => "abc", :Title => "def"}, {:Description => "ghi", :Title => "jkl"}]}, {etc},{etc} ],[{:eng...}]]
resArray = getResults(query) # Also a helper method returning an array of up to 3 arrays
resArray.each do |engine|
db_name = engine[:engine]
engine[:results].each do |set|
res = Result.new(
:session_id => params[:session_id],
:db_name => db_name,
:query => query,
:rank => set[:Rank],
:description => set[:Description],
:title => set[:Title],
:url => set[:Url] )
res.save!
end
end
res.each do |res|
res.save
end
#Result.new(:session_id => params[:session_id], :db_name => "Bing", :query => "Whats the story", :query_rank => 1, :title => "The Title", :description => "descript", :url => "www.google.ie",:query_number => 1)
respond_to do |format|
format.html { redirect_to pages_path }
format.json { head :no_content }
end
end
My routes are resources :results

I keep getting redirected to the new action in Results controller. The helper methods aren't even being executed. I'm a past master at over complicating things, can anyone help unravel this for me?
Do you have a route set up for the store action? If you do then you should use the url helper for it in your form tag:
form_tag( results_store_url )
I am having trouble getting a form text area to update a field in a rails 3.0.8 app. I keep stripping out as much as i can to narrow down where the error lies. Here's what is left.
My form:
<%= form_for #fb_comments, :remote => true, :html => { :'data-type' => 'html', :id => 'comment' } do |form| %>
<%= form.text_area :comment %>
<%= form.submit "Update Comments" %>
<% end %>
The dummy data that i put into the comment column via mysql for this record shows up so the current data is making it to the form.
controller:
def update
fbc = FbComments.find(params[:id])
fbc.update_attributes(params[:comment])
...
end
console message:

Thanks.
Your controller is recieving fb_comments not comment:

Hoe this helps.

The only difference between the two is that the one not working is polymorphic model and the controller for the polymorphic model is below:
class UploadsController < ApplicationController
before_filter :find_parent
before_filter :prepare_input_params
#respond_to :html, :json, :js
def index
#uploads = Upload.all
##uploads = #parent.try(:uploads).try(:all)
#upload = Upload.new
#respond_with([#parent, #uploads])
end
def new
#upload = #parent.uploads.new
end
def create
#upload = #parent.uploads.build(params[:upload])
if #upload.save
flash[:notice] = "sucessfully saved upload"
respond_to do |format|
format.html {redirect_to [#parent, :uploads]}
format.json {render :json => { :result => 'success', :upload => polymorphic_url([#parent,:uploads]) } }
end
else
render :action => 'new'
end
end
def edit
#upload = Upload.find(params[:id])
end
def show
"puts #upload.inspect"
#upload = #parent.uploads.find(params[:id])
#total_uploads = #parent.uploads.find(:all, :conditions => { :user_id => #upload.user.id})
end
def update
#upload = Upload.find(params[:id])
if #upload.update_attributes(params[:upload])
flash[:notice] = "Successfully updated document"
redirect_to #upload
else
render :action => 'edit'
end
end
def destroy
#upload = Upload.find(params[:id])
#upload.destroy
redirect_to([#parent, :upload])
end
private
def prepare_input_params
params[:upload][:document] = params[:Filedata] if params[:Filedata]
end
end
Here is the gist file with the form partial and uploadify bit: https://gist.github.com/940960. The form has :html => { :multipart => true }.
Thanks for the help.
EDIT:
It seems the problem is from the model, uploads.rb. When i comment out the section below: everything works, but i need to be able to use validations and specify path as i want to use S3. Anyhelp on how i can uncomment the code without the initial error of paperclip not saving happening again.
class Upload < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :document
belongs_to :uploadable, :polymorphic => true
has_attached_file :document, :styles => { :small => "150x150>",:thumb => "100x100>" }
=begin
:url => "/uploads/:id/:style/:basename.:extension",
:path => ":rails.root/public/:uploads/:id/:style/:basement.:extension"
validates_attachment_presence :document
validates_attachment_size :document, :less_than => 5.megabytes
validates_attachment_content_type :document, :content_type => ['application/octet-stream','image/jpeg','image/gif', 'image/png', 'image/pdf', 'image/doc',
'video/x-m4v', 'video/quicktime','application/x-shockwave-flash', 'audio/mpeg', 'video/mpeg', 'application/pdf','application/msword']
=end
end
Update:
I think the main problem seem to be that why attaching a new file, paperclip, somehow starts calling SELECT "uploads".*'from "uploads" instead of calling INSERT INTO 'uploads', that is controller#create action shown higher up seems to be calling SELECT, whenever ever i provide :url and :path options to paperclip has_attached_file method. See the log below:

Like i mentioned, when i comment out the :styles, : :url and :path options from paperclips's **'has_many_attachment :document', the INSERT statement is called and though it saves the file, instead of displaying the attached file, it ends up displaying several parameters like authenticity tokens etc on the website as shown below:

Did you remember to add :multipart => true to the form tag in your view?
Try adding :document_file_name to the attr_accessible call.
One thing I noticed is there is a typo on line 17 of uploadify in your gist. You have dat.upload, probably should be data.upload?
Also, have you tried uncommenting the validations one at a time? Let me know what happens. I've had my fair share of battles versus Paperclip.
I'm doing exactly the same kind of thing as you are, but using the aws-s3 gem to help me upload to S3 via paperclip. This is what's in my model:
has_attached_file :image,
:storage => :s3,
:s3_credentials => "#{Rails.root.to_s}/config/s3.yml",
:bucket => "your_s3_bucket_name",
:path => ":attachment/:id/:style/:filename"
And I have this in my gemfile:
gem "paperclip", "~> 2.3"
gem "aws-s3"
And in my groups table:
t.string "image_file_name"
t.string "image_content_type"
t.integer "image_file_size"
t.datetime "image_updated_at"
