Hi,

I use attachment\_fu plugin to upload a remote file to file system.

It works fine with IE, If we use fire fox its coming out to login page  
throwing a exception  
“Filter chain halted as  
[#\<ActionController::Filters::ClassMethods::SymbolFilter:0xb559a28  
@filter=:login\_required\>] rendered\_or\_redirected.”

I use “acts\_as\_authenticated” plugin for authentication.

The reason i found is that its not taking the current user id from the  
session(Tried hardcoding the user.id in login\_from\_session method at  
authenticated\_system module its working fine).

Can some one help me in this issue.

Thanks,  
Ratnavel.

This is my save method where i create a image and upload.

def save\_image  
test\_image = TestImage.new(:uploaded\_data =\>  
params[:RemoteFile],:user\_id =\> params[:user\_id] )

```
respond_to do |format|
  if test_image.save
    format.html{render :text=>"Success"}
  else
    format.html{render :text=>"Sorry!,Failed"}
  end
end

```

end

Its actually entering into the method and quiting back bcoz of  
authentication issue.

Assuming you are using aaa for auth an you have a relationship set for

user has\_many testimages and testimages belongs\_to user, try this

def save\_image  
test\_image = current\_user.testimage.create  
params[:RemoteFile].merge(:user\_id =\> current\_user.id)  
respond\_to do |format|  
if test\_image.save  
format.html{render :text=\>“Success”}  
else  
format.html{render :text=\>“Sorry!,Failed”}  
end  
end  
end

Hope this helps
