Heroku and Refinerycms: Application failed to start ~ attachment_fu problem - ruby-on-rails

Ok so I'm trying to get Refinerycms working with Heroku, and I'm new at all of this. I've set up an amazon s3 account and added keys and ids to the amazon_s3.yml files.
When launched on Heroku at gart.heroku.com I get the following error:
App failed to start

The s3_backend.rb line 187 contains:
##s3_config = ##s3_config = YAML.load(ERB.new(File.read(##s3_config_path)).result)[RAILS_ENV].symbolize_keys
Any help would be great!

Firstly check that your amazon_s3.yml file is checked in to git, if it is then you could try manually specifying the location somehow. If the class in s3_backend.rb has a way to set the path, you could do something like this:
S3Backend.s3_config_path = #{RAILS_ROOT}/config/amazon_s3.yml"
I'd recommend putting that in an initializer.

Could not open library 'lib.dylib' on Mac

Have some issues with launching ruby tests on Mac(Monterey 12.2.1). I've launched bundle install - everything was finished successfully, after that I tried to do a command bundle exec rake db:test:refresh, and got the following error
LoadError: Couldn't load the GEOS CAPI library.

end
end
end
I know that in my computer lib files are not in /usr/local/.. but in /opt/homebrew/lib. But when I looked inside /opt/homebrew/lib I didn't find lib.dylib. There are only libgeos.3.10.2.dylib libgeos.dylib libgeos_c.1.16.0.dylib libgeos_c.1.dylib libgeos_c.dylib.
Please, help me find the right lib and somehow tell ffi-geos.rb to look in the right place, I would REALLY appreciate it! Thank you!
But when I looked inside /opt/homebrew/lib I didn't find lib.dylib
The code from ffi-geos.rb you posted is not looking for lib.dylib (or lib64.dylib), but it's adding /usr/local/lib, /usr/local/lib64, etc, to the search path to look for the specific GEOS dylibs. As your library files are in /opt/homebrew/lib, they won't be found by that automatic procedure.
The first conditional in the code shows you can set an environment variable to define the search path. So, set the library path with:
export GEOS_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/homebrew/lib
Hope this works!

Resque job returning with error: "No such file or directory - getcwd"

I have a really simple job:
class MyJob
#queue = :high
def self.perform(user_id)
user = User.find(user_id)
MyMailer.send_email(user).deliver
end
end
If I run it manually MyJob.perform(some_id)it works perfect. However, when Rescue is executing it, it returns this error:

Have any ideas why might be happening?
Thanks!
Yes Sky. You are right about it needing to be restarted.
Some people received this error after trying to run from an already deleted directory.
I received this error after switching databases and leaving the server running. The old server info was still showing up but I was getting this error. Restarted my rails server and everything works fine with the new db.
Basically it means that there is a significant state change on the server, and your environment needs to be reset/restarted.
I started having this same issue on my production environment. After some investigation I found that this was caused by my resque workers failing to be properly restarted on each capistrano deployment.

Because of Vagrant's read-only file system you need environment set the variable SPRING_TMP_PATH to somewhere outside of the /vagrant directory
run this at the command line
mkdir ~/spring_tmp; export SPRING_TMP_PATH=/home/vagrant/spring_tmp
spring start
then run
spring status
if spring is now running then add the following line to ~/.bashrc
export SPRING_TMP_PATH="/home/vagrant/spring_tmp" # Temp PATH for spring

I got this error with RSpec. I had to mount /windows via SMB (cifs) from a shared folder. I also had to change the permissions on the shared folder to grant write access. You can either grant Full Control to Everyone, or Full Control to your Windows user, but then you have to mount with permissions.
mount -t cifs //10.0.2.2/aidc /windows -o credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,uid=500,gid=500
You also have to install Samba (cifs?) too in your Virtual Box.
I heard vboxfs is really bad and doesn't handle a large number of files.

I figured it out, I don't need ncurses on Windows, so I just commented it out from my gemfile. It appears that Jruby cannot distinguish between windows and *nix, so it blows up without special care.

getaddrinfo: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

I have a Ruby on Rails application that I am deploying on a computer running Mac OS X 10.6. The code where the problem arises is run by a delayed_job. The problem only occurs when it is run through delayed_job. If I run it within a console (rails console production) or call the API directly through cURL, it works without any problems. Also, the entire process works without issue in my development environment.
Basically, the code works in one place, but for some reason, fails where it has to work. I've searched and found a few resources, but none of the suggestions apply or make any difference. When I log into the server and run the commands, everything works. But for some reason when they are run/started by Capistrano, it doesn't work.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Important notes:
Ruby version: 1.9.2-p0
Rails version: 3.0.1
delayed_job version: latest (from collectiveidea/delayed_job)
rest-client version: 1.6.1
Code:
class CallApi < Struct.new(:num)
def perform
log "Entering perform"
apinum = num || 5
log "ApiNum = #{apinum}"
results = attempt(2,10) do
ActiveSupport::JSON.decode(RestClient.get(API_URL, {:params => {:apinum => apinum}}))
end
log "Results retrieved. (count: #{results.count})"
end
def log(message)
Delayed::Worker.logger.info "[CallApi] #{Time.now} - #{message}"
end
end
Environment Config (note: the url is fake, but of the same form as the real one):
API_URL = "http://api.example.org/api_endpoint"
# Originally, I had "http://" before the beginning, but found a
# post mentioning that Net::Http.start didn't like that.
# So I tried it both ways.
# The same error occurs regardless of if the "http://" is there.
Call where the error happens:
RestClient.get(API_URL, {:params => {:apinum => apinum}})

The error occurs when the DNS resolution fails. Check if you can wget (or curl) the api url from the command line. Changing the DNS server and testing it might help.
I ran into a similar situation today - deploying an app to a mac os x server, and receiving the 'getaddrinfo' message when I tried to access an external api. It turns out that the error occurs when the ssh session that originally launched the app is no longer active. That's why everything works perfectly if you ssh into your server and run commands manually (or launch the server manually) - as long as you keep your ssh session alive, this error won't occur.
Whether this is a bug or a quirk in OS X, I'm not sure. Here's the page that led me to the solution - http://lists.apple.com/archives/unix-porting/2010/Jul/msg00001.html
All I had to do was update my capistrano task to launch the app using 'nohup'. So changing
run "cd #{current_path} && RAILS_ENV=production unicorn_rails -c config/unicorn.rb -D"
to
run "cd #{current_path} && RAILS_ENV=production nohup unicorn_rails -c config/unicorn.rb -D"
did the trick for me.
Hope this helps somebody - it was quite a pain to figure out!
I fixed this problem simply by closing and reopening the Terminal.
rest-client's RestClient needs the http: scheme when resolving the URL. It calls Net::HTTP for you, which doesn't want the http: part, but rest-client takes care of that.
Is the URL the actual one you are attempting to reach? example.org is a valid domain used for testing and documentation and is reachable; I'd expect the "api" and "api_endpoint" parts to fail and see that when I try to reach them.
require 'socket'
IPSocket.getaddress('example.org') # => "2620:0:2d0:200::10"
IPSocket.getaddress('api.example.org') # =>
# ~> -:7:in `getaddress': getaddrinfo: nodename nor servname provided, or not known (SocketError)
# ~> from -:7:in `<main>'
Here's what I get using Curl:
greg-mbp-wireless:~ greg$ curl api.example.org/api_endpoint
curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host 'api.example.org'
greg-mbp-wireless:~ greg$ curl example.org/api_endpoint

I got the same error when I check the localhost is set in hosts file it is somehow not set. Setting localhost to 127.0.0.1 solved it.
sudo vi /etc/hosts
>>
127.0.0.1 localhost
I restarted my computer (Mac Mountain Lion) and the problem fixed itself. Something having to do with the shell thinking it was disconnected from the internet I think.
Restarting your shell in some definite way may solve this problem as well. Simply opening up a new session/window however did not work.
To avoid this problem, we can bind to 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost:
bin/rails server -b 127.0.0.1
I was seeing this error unrelated to rails. It turned out my test was trying to use a port that was too high (greater than 65535).
This code will produce the error in question
require 'socket'
Socket.getaddrinfo("127.0.0.1", "65536")
For me, I had to change a line of code in my local_env.yml to get the rspec tests to run.
I had originally had:
REDIS_HOST: 'redis'
and changed it to:
REDIS_HOST: 'localhost'
and the test ran fine.
In my config/application.yml
I have changed this
redis:
url: "redis://redis:6379/0"
to this
redis:
url: "redis://localhost:6379/0"
and it works for me
I got the error while trying to develop while disconnected to the Internet. However, the website I was working on needs to be able to talk to some other websites, so it choked when it couldn't do so. Connecting to the internet fixed the error.
If all of the above fails, try to convert to UNIX Line Endings, or do:
brew install dos2unix
sudo dos2unix -c mac /private/etc/hosts
Maybe the hosts encoding is wrong.
hope this helps
I had this problem running rake db:create. This page clued me into the DNS issue. I checked my VPN connection and found it was disconnected for some reason. I reconnected and now rake worked without a hitch.
