Cannot update the model using a delayed_job - ruby-on-rails

I am trying to upload a video to facebook using koala and then saving the video id returned form facebook.
The upload works great but when the method tries to update the attribute I get a weird error:
failed with NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.delete - 0 failed attempts
this is the code inside the method I am trying to run as a delayed_job:
#first line alone works
result = graph.put_video(file_path)
unless result.nil?
#this line fails
self.update_attributes(:fbid => result["id"])
end
Any ideas?
Update: it only happens on windows and Mac not in linux

Ruby on Rails: MiniMagick get_pixels gives "unable to write file"

This has been working for us for years as a quick-and-dirty way to check for duplicate images being uploaded to our Ruby on Rails site:
file.blob.open do |temp_file|
file_data = MiniMagick::Image.open(temp_file.path)
file_data.resize '1024x768'
#md5 = Digest::MD5.hexdigest(file_data.get_pixels.join)
# etc.
end
After recent Rails upgrades (I believe it started around 6.0.4; we're gradually moving to 7.0), this started throwing errors like:
/home/jeff/.rvm/gems/ruby-3.1.2/gems/mini_magick-4.11.0/lib/mini_magick/shell.rb:17:in `run': `convert /tmp/mini_magick20221120-1647726-dit0yb.png -depth 8 RGB:-` failed with error: (MiniMagick::Error) convert-im6.q16: unable to write file `-' # error/constitute.c/WriteImage/1341.
I tracked the problem down to get_pixels. Everything works fine until there, including resizing the image in the previous line. Why do we get this error when calling get_pixels? Why is it trying to write a file when getting the pixels matrix?
Thanks for your help!

Windows, Ec2ServerCreate - Cannot set JSON attributes when running knife from Rails application

I am able to launch new instance at AWS from Ruby on Rails application (Chef::Knife::Ec2ServerCreate.new()). Works fine till I try to set JSON attributes. When I set them from command line and invoke knife.bat, it works.
Looking at ec2_server_create shows that command line option --json-attributes is mapped to symbol :json_attributes. I tried to set it using following code:
Chef::Config[:knife][:json_attributes] = "{'NodeName' : 'Node001'}"
and I get error:TypeError (no implicit conversion of Symbol into Integer):
As soon as I comment this single line, instance is created, registered with chef server and recipe is running.
Any suggestion how to set json attributes of first chef-client run?
PS
Sample code shows constant value for attribute, but actual value would be dynamically created.
Error message and code line where error occurs:
/chef/knife/core/bootstrap_context.rb:188:in `[]=': no implicit conversion of Symbol into Integer (TypeError)
Looking into source you can find:
def first_boot
(#config[:first_boot_attributes] || {}).tap do |attributes|
if #config[:policy_name] && #config[:policy_group]
attributes[:policy_name] = #config[:policy_name]
attributes[:policy_group] = #config[:policy_group]
else
attributes[:run_list] = #run_list #THIS LINE CAUSES EXCEPTION
end
attributes.merge!(:tags => #config[:tags]) if #config[:tags] && !#config[:tags].empty?
end
end
I set run list.
The issue is that json_attributes needs to be a hash, not a string. It isn't the #run_list that is failing, it is "{'NodeName' : 'Node001'}"[:run_list] which when you see in on place is probably a bit clearer.

Rails App with Sinatra engine - How to avoid rails errors?

Problem: When running specs the output is very confusing, instead of saying where the error lies it just throws misleading errors
This is inside the rails lib folder, and it's mounted on the routes.rb
# lib/engines/users/app.rb
module Engines
module Users
class App < Sinatra::Base
get '/api/v1/users/me' do
raise 'runtime error here'
end
get '/api/v1/another-route' do
# something here
status 200
end
end
end
end
The spec file looks something like this:
it 'returns a 200' do
get '/api/v1/users/me', auth_attributes
expect(last_response.body).to eq 'something' # added to clarify my point, it's not the response status that I care of.
expect(last_response.status).to be 200
end
error:
Failure/Error: expect(last_response.status).to be 200
expected #<Fixnum:401> => 200
got #<Fixnum:1001> => 500
Compared using equal?, which compares object identity,
but expected and actual are not the same object. Use
`expect(actual).to eq(expected)` if you don't care about
object identity in this example.
expected error:
RuntimeError:
runtime error here
Another route also fails:
it 'something' do
get '/api/v1/another-route', auth_attributes
expect(last_response.status).to be 401
json = JSON.parse(last_response.body).with_indifferent_access
expect(json[:message]).to eql "You have been revoked access."
end
error: Prints a massive html output which I believe is the rails backtrace html output
expected error: none as this endpoint doesn't raise an error
My question is if there's a way to:
Stop rails from dealing with this, so it gives the actual output
Avoid the entire engine to fail because one route raise exception
I believe that by solving the first point, the second one gets fixed too.
Thank you for your time
In order to solve my problem I've discovered that on the spec_helper the ENV['RACK_ENV'] was not being set, setting it to test resolves the problem and throws the exception I need in order to debug my code.
This happens because https://github.com/sinatra/sinatra/blob/master/lib/sinatra/base.rb#L1832
set :show_exceptions, Proc.new { development? }
development? returned true when in fact should be false (needed the RACK_ENV set to test)
Now I get the correct output.

Console error with example of ui.bootstrap.datepicker

It works but the error message upset me a lot and I thought that was something wrong with my code.
Can I assume this is not related with example given but with some internals or is the example missing something?
ui-bootstrap 0.5.0 has a bug,
(it tries to unbind 'focus' event handler, but handler doesn't exist)
https://github.com/angular-ui/bootstrap/blob/gh-pages/ui-bootstrap-tpls-0.5.0.js#L1226
you can apply this changes
https://github.com/angular-ui/bootstrap/commit/bf30898da27272df75f6c7ff26545ed16ebf1978
or build it directly from github
or wait for 0.6.0

Weird rails error while loading the application

I am having this bizarre error and I don't know what to do.
This code runs fine on my development and staging machine but crashes on production.
All I have to do is load the page or call script/server to trigger the following error:
Error message:
interning empty string
Exception class:
ArgumentError
Full Stack trace: Code
Sorry for this short description, but this is all that i am able to show to you. =/
Thank you.
This could be because you have an invalid filename for a partial (a filename with two consecutive zeros).
For example
_partial..html.erb (invalid)
This blog post mentions this error:
