Question

I’m migrating from Active Record to Mongoid, and this paperclip stuff used to work fine. I’m using Ubuntu 12.04.

I’ve got this code in my mongoid document:

has_mongoid_attached_file :photo,
  :styles => {
    :thumb => "60x60",
    :small => "100x100",
    :medium => "300x200",
    :large => "600x400"
  },
  :storage => :s3,
  :s3_credentials => "#{Rails.root}/config/s3.yml",
  :path => "#{Rails.env}/merc:attachment/:id/:style.:extension",
  :url => ":s3_alias_url",
  :bucket => '%^&*&^'

I have the rmagick gem installed and the command_path pointing to where the various imagemagick commands are -> ‘/usr/bin’.

I’m using Unicorn as my webserver, and I have verified that identiy and convert are available by putting this in my view:

<%= `which convert` %>
<%= `echo $PATH` %>

But alas, when I try to upload the image I get :

Photo /tmp/qdoba20121005-27609-1m3kq9c.jpg is not recognized by the
'identify' command.  Photo /tmp/qdoba20121005-27609-1m3kq9c.jpg is not
recognized by the 'identify' command.  Photo
/tmp/qdoba20121005-27609-1m3kq9c.jpg is not recognized by the
'identify' command.   Photo /tmp/qdoba20121005-27609-1m3kq9c.jpg is
not recognized by the 'identify' command.

Seemingly one for every one of the styles I have defined.

I’ve confirmed that the file exists, and I can run identify on the file from the commandline.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

There is a recent update to the Cocaine gem that is breaking the imagemagick filenames for a lot of people – check it out because rolling back Cocaine to the previous version may help.
