I'm trying to upload some photos into my Rails app. But I'm getting:
Paperclip::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError in Admin::ImagesController#create
C:/Users/Dwayne/stream20110816-3680-1hm9dag-0.jpeg is not recognized by the 'identify' command.
I know this has been asked before. I thought I'd give my side of the story though, be a bit more verbose than the others, and in doing so help increase awareness of this terrible tragedy.
What platform are you on?
# uname
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64
Is ImageMagick installed?
# identify
Version: ImageMagick 6.4.0 01/19/10 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2008 ImageMagick Studio LLC
Where is it?
# which identify
/usr/bin/identify
Tell that to Paperclip:
# config/environments/development.rb
Paperclip.options[:command_path] = "/usr/bin"
See if all the files and folders work:
# identify C:/Users/Dwayne/stream20110817-1264-1xuum8v-0.jpg
stream20110817-1264-1xuum8v-0.jpg JPEG 249x262 249x262+0+0 PseudoClass 256c 8-bit 9.88281kb
# identify /cygdrive/c/Users/Dwayne/stream20110817-1264-1xuum8v-0.jpg
stream20110817-1264-1xuum8v-0.jpg JPEG 249x262 249x262+0+0 PseudoClass 256c 8-bit 9.88281kb
Try the same from within the Rails console:
# irb(main):005:0> system("identify C:/Users/Dwayne/stream20110817-1264-1xuum8v-0.jpg")
C:/Users/Dwayne/stream20110817-1264-1xuum8v-0.jpg JPEG 360x360 360x360+0+0 DirectClass 8-bit 32.3281kb
=> true
Still nothing?
Take it to Paperclip's GitHub.
Still nothing?
Hope that somebody here might know.
