Problem with attachment_fu

Rails
1

Hi,

i started to test attachment_fu, but i can’t get it to upload a file.
See
the error:

NoMethodError (undefined method content_type' for "/100_2261.jpg":String): /vendor/plugins/attachment_fu/lib/technoweenie/attachment_fu.rb:244:inuploaded_data=’

I looked at the plugin code, but can’t figure out how to fix this issue.
I’d
appreciate any help.

Bye,
Tino

Your form needs to be a multipart form. Use :multipart => true.

I use the following form snippet:

form_remote_for(:image, :url => images_path, :html => {:multipart =>
true} ,
:update => “image”) do |f|

And it is compiled to a multipart form as far as i see in my html code.

He, now it’s working. Thank you Raja. For the first contact with
attachment_fu I will avoid using AJAX forms for such a scenario.

You can’t use AJAX forms (form_remote_for uses a for file upload
calls a XMLHttpRequest via the prototype js lib) with file uploads.
Alternate methods for inline uploads utilize hidden forms.
