I am using Carrierwave to upload photos to my rails app using a simple controller: 

  # POST /photos
  # POST /photos.xml
  def create
    @photo = Photo.new(params[:photo])

    respond_to do |format|
      if @photo.save
        format.html { redirect_to(@photo, :notice => 'Photo was successfully created.') }
        format.xml  { render :xml => @photo, :status => :created, :location => @photo }
        format.json { render :json => @photo, :status => :created }
      else
        format.html { render :action => "new" }
        format.xml  { render :xml => @photo.errors, :status => :unprocessable_entity }
        format.json { render :json => @photo.errors, :status => :unprocessable_entity }
      end
    end
  end

I’m sending the files via Ajax, and despite the upload actually being saved and processed correctly, Rails is still returning a mysterious Completed 406 Not Acceptable:

Do you know why this is happening?

    Your controller is processing your request as “JS”. However, your controller action only responds to html, xml and json. Add lines for format.js and the relevant responses.
