Silent Upload Failure

[activestylus]

I can't seem to get redactor to upload images. The post action goes off without a hitch, but no actual image files are ever uploaded into the folder I've established for storage. Here is my uploader

# encoding: utf-8
class RedactorRailsPictureUploader < CarrierWave::Uploader::Base
  include RedactorRails::Backend::CarrierWave
  include CarrierWave::MiniMagick

  storage :file

  def store_dir
    "system/uploads/redactor/images"
  end

  process :read_dimensions

  def extension_white_list
    RedactorRails.image_file_types
  end
end

A peek at the logs while I attempt to add an image to my redactor text field:

Started GET "/system/uploads/redactor/images/photo-me.jpg" for 127.0.0.1 at 2015-04-06 21:39:47 +0200

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [GET] "/system/uploads/redactor/images/photo-me.jpg"):

Inspected that images folder and I see no files are in there.

Sanity Check:

• My upload folder exists, is owned by my rails user and is chmod to 777 for extra measure
• ImageMagick is installed, convert command works, although...
• I'm not actually doing any image processing
• My forms are have the necessary multipart: true attribute
• Using redactor-rails (0.4.5) and rails (3.2.14)

Any ideas?

Turned out to be a Carrierwave configuration issue.

in config/initializers/carrierwave.rb

require 'carrierwave/orm/activerecord'

CarrierWave.configure do |config|
  config.storage = :file
  config.root = Rails.root
end

I substituted one line to get this working with redactor uploader:

config.root = "#{Rails.root}/public"

Hopefully this helps someone else
