Redmine not starting after installation

[hermannkm]

After installation on my Redmine startup fails with this error message:

Error: The application encountered the following error: undefined method `before_filter' for IssueAttachmentQueriesController:Class
Did you mean?  before_action (NoMethodError)
    /var/www/redmine-4.2/plugins/redmine_issue_attachments/app/controllers/issue_attachment_queries_controller.rb:25:in `<class:IssueAttachmentQueriesController>'
    /var/www/redmine-4.2/plugins/redmine_issue_attachments/app/controllers/issue_attachment_queries_controller.rb:23:in `<top (required)>'

Additionally ruby zip version required conflicts with some other plugins (easily resolved):

sed -i "s/before_filter/before_action/g" /usr/src/redmine/plugins/redmine_issue_attachments/app/controllers/issue_attachment_queries_controller.rb
