Problem uploading file to database mysql blob field

Rails
1

Hi All,

Please help me ,I need to look into this issue asap, I need to change
the redmine functionality of uploading files to disk to upload them to
database. I tried suggestion on
http://dizzy.co.uk/ruby_on_rails/contents/store-file-uploads-in-database
but no luck , My form is multipart but still getting the error.

Please bare with me I am new to ruby and rails.

Here is the like for my redmine question
http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/7737

I need to change Redmine functionality to upload files directly to
database and not to local filesystem. *

  1. What I think is that I should add a field to “Attachments” table.*
    I did this via this following migration
    class AddFileToAttachments < ActiveRecord::Migration
    def self.up
    add_column :“attachments”, :“file”, :binary, :limit =>10.megabytes
    end end

def self.down

  drop_column :"attachments", :"file"

end

  1. Now I should change the model code to copy the file content into the
    blob.

I updated attachment.rb , just added the line self.file =
@temp_file.read
as I need to read the content of file and put it into database.

def file=(incoming_file)
unless incoming_file.nil?
@temp_file = incoming_file
if @temp_file.size > 0
self.filename = sanitize_filename(@temp_file.original_filename)
self.disk_filename = Attachment.disk_filename(filename)
self.content_type = @temp_file.content_type.to_s.chomp
self.filesize = @temp_file.size
self.file = @temp_file.read
end
end
end

But After doing so I am getting the following error: Anybody please give
some direction

ndefined method `original_filename’ for #String:0x8c09038
