HTML5 Uploader Generates 'HTTP Error' about balder HOT 10 CLOSED

I've done a little work since then, it appears the upload might be getting stuck on something related to exiftool. I disabled exiftool per your instructions in the docs, though...

Try commenting out "before_create :exif_read" in the photo model. I will look into this later but currently too busy with other work.

from balder.

This worked. I commented out line 13 in the photo.rb model. Thank you for your help!

I get IO errors when uploading with the HTML5 uploader. The upload stops at 60% or 80%. Depending on the file.

from balder.

Have you tried commenting out line 13 in photo.rb? If you are on Heroku, the EXIF module causes problems and isn't really necessary to the successful operation and deployment of Balder.

@nullmedium where are you storing the files? On disk or S3? Are you using Heroku? Also see the tip above.

from balder.

@espen On disk. I created an uploads folder within the rails root directory.
In Chrome the uploads aborts and in Safari it stalls. The file is 2 MB in size.

I tried to comment out the line.

Edit: The application is hosted on my own server.

from balder.

What does the log say? Can you try with another file? And perhaps a smaller file?

from balder.

I found the problem. The apache process does not the proper permissions to write into the
/tmp/passenger.1.0.17724/generation-0/buffered_uploads directory!

from balder.

Good to hear you fixed it :)
