I have implemented paperclip in rails exactly as a variety of tutorials recommend. Upon trying to upload a photo I consistently get the following: AWS::S3::NoConnectionEstablished usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/aws-s3-0.6.2/lib/aws/s3/connection.rb:213:in `connection' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/aws-s3-0.6.2/lib/aws/s3/bas...
So, I'm using Paperclip and AWS-S3, which is awesome. And it works great. Just one problem, though: I need to upload really large files. As in over 50 Megabytes. And so, nginx dies. So apparently Paperclip stores things to disk before going to S3? I found this really cool article, but it also seems to be going to disk first, and then do...
When submitting a nested object form, I can't get it to reject invalid child objects because the reject_if proc doesn't see the Paperclip attribute. Here are the relevant parts of my models & forms: class Stage < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :assets, :uniq => true accepts_nested_attributes_for :assets, :reject_if => l...

Hello; I installed the paperclip plugin and was able to use it locally. When I configured it to work with amazon S3 I keep getting the NoSuchBucket (The specified bucket does not exist) error. Paperclip documentation states that the bucket will be created if it doesn't exist but clearly something is going wrong in my case. I first insa...
I built a photo gallery which uses Paperclip and validates the content-type using validates_attachment_content_type. The application runs on a shared host with Passenger. Is it possible to bypass the validation and run malicious scripts from the public/pictures directory? If so, is there anything that I can do to avoid evil scripts fro...

Hi, I am doing file-upload for a web-application (running on unix/linux). I'm wondering if there would be a concern if I planned to create a new directory for each file upload? This is the out-of-the-box approach for the Ruby on Rails plugin "paperclip". I debating what the trade-offs are, or whether perhaps it's just not a concern, ...

How do I set the proc?...
Hi, for a new App I want to use paperclip to store Files to S3. I already have installed the aws-s3 gem for another app. That seems to cause some problems, because Paperclip should use right_aws but is trying to use the aws-s3 gem. But I don't want to remove the aws-s3 gem from my system. Is there a way to solve this conflict? Maybe by ...
