Attachment_fu file deletion

Rails

I was wondering if there was a built in function for deleting non-image
files?

The attachment model gets callbacks for removing thumbnails and the
actual file:

So, delete the model and it should clean up the file(s) for you.

Sorry, I’m new to rails…
When you say model, do you mean the database entry?

Guess I don’t; I have this link:
<%= link_to “delete”, { :action => “delete” }, :confirm => “Are you
sure?” %>
but when I click on it leads me to a blank page
http://localhost:3000/files/delete

The action looks like this:
def delete
@user.file.destroy
flash[:notice] = ‘Your file has been deleted.’
redirect_to hub_url
end

Thanks, took a second look at my routes and found the error

That’s a problem with your routes or your controller, not
attachment_fu. Look at your logs and see why it’s a blank screen.
