I’m working on a project that needs a picture taken from an iPhone to
be sent to a Rails back end, which uses paperclip.
I’m trying to send it via http post but i get the following error:
We’re sorry, but something went wrong.
We’ve been notified about this issue and we’ll take a look at it
shortly.
The rails output shows:
[paperclip] An error was received while processing:
#<Paperclip::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError: /var/folders/pD/
pDBak1ufEeSHluZ8kAougU+++TI/-Tmp-/stream20100721-4816-1pbpnnn-0 is not
recognized by the ‘identify’ command.>
What is the best way to do this?

The normal cause of that problem in my experience (and I’ve had it a few
times) is that ‘identify’ isn’t in the path for the Rails process.
The easiest solution is to go to the server and type “which identify”
then
put the path in the config/environments/production.rb file (or whatever
your
environment it):
Paperclip.options[:image_magick_path] = ‘/foo/bar/bin/’
