Need help with RMagick for attachment_fu

I can’t get attachment_fu to save the images. I have rmagic and
imagemagick installed and if I run some of the scripts on this page (
http://rmagick.rubyforge.org/portfolio.html ) it works as expected.

When I try to save an image file uploaded in a rails project it isn’t
saved, no folder is created and no messages are logged to give a hint to
what is wrong.

The last time I set things up and they worked I did so with the
following ruby script (http://rubyforge.org/projects/rmagick/),
unfortunately this time I tried installing Rmagick using the first
terminal commands and had a hard time uninstalling it which then caused
the later ruby script to fail.

All I want to do is upload and resize image, so I don’t really care
which library I use (rMagick, ImageScience, etc). So if anyone has a
foolproof way if setting those up I would love to hear how.

Thanks

After installing ImageScience, I get the following message:

This error occurred while loading the following files:
image_science

I was able to get ImageMagick and RMagick setup properly, although
ImageScience still throws the error.

I would still be interested in ImageScience setup tips, or reasons for
the error I get, if anyone has them, otherwise I am good.

turns out the error was because I forgot to set the multipart = true. :slight_smile:
ImageScience is now working beautifully.
