Carrierwave upload hangs forever

Rails
1

Hi.

I’m making an app where people can share gifs and everything was working
properly or so i thought, the problem came when i tried to upload a gif
with a large amount of frames and i noticed that the upload process,
which
is handled by carrierwave, hangs forever. I think that the problem rises
when i try to convert this into a “jpeg” using MiniMagick, is anybody
else
experiencing the same problem? i would like to get some insight on wich
is
the best way to handle gif uploads in carrierwave and converting them
into
jpeg’s

This is the code im using to convert gifs into jpeg

version :thumb do
process convert: :jpg
process resize_to_limit: [200,200]
end

Thanks in advance!

I’m encountering the same issue. It only seems to be on an animated GIF
that has many frames, regardless of uploading from file vs. URL. I’ve
successfully uploaded other shorter animated GIFs. I’m not performing
any processing other than setting the content type, width, and height on
the model before saving (via process :store_meta in the
carrierwave-meta[1] gem).
