POST \ GET request issues.

[keferboeck]

It works just fine in Development (funny enough it used to work also in Production). The problem is that on production it issues the wrong GET request:

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [GET] "/at/tinymce_assets"): Two issues here: Firstly - it puts a locale in front, secondly it uses a GET request.

On development however it works fine:

Started POST "/tinymce_assets" for 127.0.0.1 at 2015-09-27 02:33:10 +0200 Processing by TinymceAssetsController#create as HTML My routes.rb looks like this:

Rails.application.routes.draw do root to: 'static_pages#redirect' localized do match '', to: 'static_pages#welcome', :as => 'welcome', via: 'get' ... lots of other stuff ... end match '*path', to: redirect("/#{I18n.locale}/%{path}"), constraints: lambda { |req| !req.path.starts_with? "/#{I18n.default_locale}/" }, via: 'get' post '/tinymce_assets/' => 'tinymce_assets#create', :trailing_slash => false end I am adding here the :trailing_slash => false - as it is set to true in environment.rb

Question:

Why does the production to site decide to fire a GET request + adding the locale, but the development does everything its supposed to do? Where can I set this behaviour, or is this a but in imageupload ?

I answered your StackOverflow question, and I'll just copy it in here as well.

You should swap the last match '*path' line with the post '/tinymce_assets/' line. That will probably take care of it, or at least get you a bit further.

Routes in Rails match from the top, so match '*path' matches a POST to /tinymce_assets/, sees it doesn't have a locale, and does the redirect, via GET. Your application never reaches the line for post '/tinymce_assets'.

Cleaning up…

It was nginx rewriting URLs by adding slashes at the end that caused the problems. Better explanation available on StackOverflow.
