I am using Paperclip to upload videos and keep getting a Security Validation error about the content type
The error when saving an mp4 to my model class is "content type discovered from file command: video/mp4. See documentation to allow this combination."
The save looks like this
AssignmentEventVideo.create(video: "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/dev/upload/0c857445-09ad-44b6-bbfa-810a9974a501/ScreenCaptureProject4.mp4")
The model class
class AssignmentEventVideo < ActiveRecord::Base
has_attached_file :video, :styles => {
:medium => { :geometry => "640x480", :format => 'mp4' },
:android => { :geometry => "640x480", :format => 'webm'},
:mobile => { :geometry => "300x300", :format => 'png', :time => 2 },
:thumb => { :geometry => "100x100#", :format => 'png', :time => 2 }
}
validates_attachment_content_type :video, content_type: ['video/mp4']
end
If have tried disabling validation all together with the code below but it still throws the error
do_not_validate_attachment_file_type :video
I have confirmed that the file command is return the correct type with
file -b --mime ScreenCaptureProject3.mp4
which returns
video/mp4; charset=binary
The save is working fine for another model class that accepts images and checks content using
validates_attachment_content_type :photo, content_type: /\Aimage\/.*\Z/
I'm not sure where to turn next - except to recreate the class and change the column name to something that doesn't clash with video?
Hope someone can help!
Thanks katafrakt - you got me on the right path.
I was using a presigned_post and uploading to S3 using JQuery FileUploader. This was not setting the Content-Type and I was getting back a binary/octet type that Paperclip didn't know how to deal with.
I set content_type on the presigned post, which stores the right meta data in S3 and all is well.

I am trying to implement paperclip-av-transcoder gem. I have checked everything but not able to find what I am doing wrong here. I'm writing steps which I have followed.
Added into gemfile
--> gem 'paperclip-av-transcoder'
Added into my model
--> has_attached_file :video_file, :styles => {
:medium => { :geometry => "640x480", :format => 'mp4' },
:thumb => { :geometry => "100x100#", :format => 'jpg', :time => 10 }
}, :processors => [:transcoder]
--> validates_attachment_content_type :video_file, :content_type => /\Avideo\/.*\Z/
created schema to add column name
"video_file_meta"
In my view file
video_tag(video.video_file.url, controls: true, autobuffer: true, size: "320x240")
I have checked video in public/system folder it is properly saved I am able to see that video there but I am not able to see that in my view file.
Video Url -> /system/videos/video_files/000/000/003/original/tingtong_464.mp4?1497851104
I am sharing screens to show how it looks in the browser.
Everything from my point is correct, except Paperclip requires at least one field in database - *_file_name (for you it's video_file_file_name), but you didn't added it and Paperclip can't construct url properly. Read more https://github.com/thoughtbot/paperclip#usage
Currently working model file code:
has_attached_file :video_file, :styles => {
:medium => { :geometry => "500x500", :format => 'jpg' },
:thumb => { :geometry => "100x100", :format => 'jpg' }
}, :processors => [:transcoder]
validates_attachment_content_type :video_file,
:content_type => [
"video/mp4",
"video/quicktime",
"video/3gpp",
"video/x-ms-wmv",
"video/mov",
"video/flv",
],
:message => "Sorry! We do not accept the attached file type"
I guess I am not resizing my video file in any other video format so it is working properly.
I want to store my images using the normal file storage adapter.
This is my PAPERCLIP_STORAGE_OPTS:
PAPERCLIP_STORAGE_OPTS = {
:styles => { :thumb => '170x170!#', :medium => '450x300!>', :large => '600x400!>',:desktop => '750x300!>'},
:convert_options => { :all => '-quality 100' },
:processor => [ :papercrop ],
:path => "/opt/www/myapp/images/:class/:attachment/:id_partition/:style/:filename"
}
This is my model :
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessor :PAPERCLIP_STORAGE_OPTS
has_attached_file :user_photo, PAPERCLIP_STORAGE_OPTS_THUMB
When a user uploads a photo - it actually does store the image in the correct location on my system:
/opt/www/myapp/images/users/user_photos/000/000/050/original/picture
However when I go to show the image, like this :
<%=image_tag current_user.user_photo.url(:thumb), :height=> "30", :width=> "30" %>
The image is not found, and in my logs I see the image request at this URL:
ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [GET] "/system/users/user_photos/000/000/050/thumb/picture"):
And the full URL created is :
https://www.myapp.com/system/users/user_photos/000/000/050/thumb/picture?1460285803 - which doesnt resolve.
How can I configure paperclip to allow my images to be stored in this particular url /opt/www/myapp/images/ and still be accessed and linked to correctly through Paperclip in my rails app?
You will have to set URL option:
for me it was:
has_attached_file :avatar, :styles => { :medium => "300x300>", :thumb => "100x100>", :small=>"60x60>" },
:path => ':rails_root/public/system/:class/:id/:style/:filename',
:url => '/system/:class/:id/:style/:filename'
Not sure for your case as you store images in the app folder directly so you may try(test it from console and modify it):
:path => "/opt/www/myapp/images/:class/:attachment/:id_partition/:style/:filename",
:url => '/images/:class/:attachment/:id_partition/:style/:filename'
I would like to restrict File uploads to images only, and convert them automatically to .png. To do so, I use this class:
class ImageAttachment < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :file, :file_file_name, :file_content_type, :file_file_size
validates_attachment :file,
:content_type => { :content_type => ["image/jpg", "image/tiff", "image/png"] }
has_attached_file :file,
:styles => { :original => ["100%", :png],
:large => ["500x500", :png],
:medium => ["150x150", :png],
:thumb => ["75x100", :png]
},
:default_url => "/system/missing_thumb.png"
end
As I understand, the :styles => { :original => ["100%", :png], ...} should convert all uploaded files that pass validation to .png files. Therefore, I expect the following things to happen when uploading a file example.tiff:
convert the file to .png
change the file name accordingly to example.png
change the content type accordingly to "image/png"
Here's a spec I use:
it "should convert all image types to .png" do
test_file = File.new(Rails.root + "spec/fixtures/images/test.tiff")
attachment = ImageAttachment.create :file => test_file
attachment.file.url.should == "some/paperclip/path/.../test.png"
attachment.file_file_name.should == "test.png"
attachment.file_content_type.should == "image/png"
end
The first assertion is true, and I can also see ImageMagick output in the terminal,
but attachment.file_file_name still returns example.tiff, and attachment.file_content_type returns "image/tiff".
Is my assumption that paperclip automatically updates the file_file_name and the file_content_type attributes wrong?
If so, how would I best do this on my own?
I have this validation for content type:
validates_attachment_content_type :photo, :content_type => /^image\/(jpg|jpeg|pjpeg|png|x-png|gif)$/, :message => 'file type is not allowed (only jpeg/png/gif images)'
I want only the message above to be displayed but instead it says
Photos photo content type file type is not allowed (only jpeg/png/gif images)
because its a photos model and attached file photo.
thanks

I'm late to this party.
validates_attachment_size :image, :in => 0.megabytes..2.megabytes, message: " is too large, try less than 2mb or for help"
Gets you:
Should get you closer to home, with an output of:

I am using Rails 3.2 + Heroku + S3 + Paperclip to store an icon on my User model. The model is not saving the 4 icon fields though. The images are getting processed and saved on S3 correctly and no errors are occurring. I also have another model that has a document being stored via Paperclip and S3. That model works perfectly in all cases. The User icon works locally but not on Heroku.
production.rb relevant configuration
config.paperclip_defaults = {
:storage => :s3,
:s3_credentials => {
:bucket => ENV['AWS_BUCKET'],
:access_key_id => ENV['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'],
:secret_access_key => ENV['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY']
}
}
User model code:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :icon
has_attached_file :icon, :url => "/system/:rails_env/:attachment/:style/:hash.:extension",
:hash_data => ":class/:attachment/:id",
:hash_secret => "superSecretThing",
:styles => { :medium => "300x300>", :thumb => "100x100>" },
:default_url => "/blank.png"
...
Controller code: (This code is kind of crazy because I am AJAXing files Base64 encoded.)
params[:user][:icon_data]
decoded_file = Base64.decode64(data)
begin
split_name = params[:user][:icon_file_name].split(".")
file = Tempfile.new([split_name[0..-2].join("."), ".#{split_name[-1]}"])
file.binmode
file.write(decoded_file)
file.close
#user.icon = open(file)
#user.icon_file_name = params[:user][:icon_file_name]
ensure
file.unlink
end
#user.save
I do an almost identical process on another model with a Paperclip attachment and it works flawlessly. In both cases the attachment is being saved correctly to S3 and no errors are being raised. This gist has example output for a controller action from the Heroku logs.
I am pretty baffled because the other model works fine. The only real difference is that the User attachment does image processing but that part appears to be working fine.
The problem is the same as this one, but the solution there does not apply.
Thoughts?
So the problem is that not including the :path argument makes it try to use the :url parameter for both the url and the path. The real fix is to include the :path parameter in addition to the url.
So for example a fixed configuration that works both locally and on Heroku:
has_attached_file :icon,
:url => "/system/:rails_env/:attachment/:style/:hash.:extension",
:path => "public/system/:rails_env/:attachment/:style/:hash.:extension",
:hash_data => ":class/:attachment/:id",
:hash_secret => "superDuperSecret",
:styles => { :medium => "300x300>", :thumb => "100x100>" },
:default_url => "/blank.png"
