Cannot set sSwfPath to have it to work

[phron]

Hello I'm developping an app on local. I try to add TableTools to my dataTables. The TableTools buttons are well displayed on the page but they have no effect, I always have a routing error about swfPath.

What is the correct way to have TableTools working on local ? Thanks for help

application.js

//= require jquery
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require bootstrap
//= require dataTables/jquery.dataTables
//= require dataTables/jquery.dataTables.bootstrap
//= require dataTables/extras/TableTools
//= require dataTables/extras/ZeroClipboard
//= require_tree .

users.js.coffee

jQuery ->

  #  Init the table
  $('#users-grid').dataTable
    bjQueryUI: true
    sDom: 'T<"clear"><"fg-toolbar ui-widget-header ui-corner-tl ui-corner-tr ui-helper-clearfix"lfr>t<"fg-toolbar ui-widget-header ui-corner-bl ui-corner-br ui-helper-clearfix"ip>'
    oTableTools:
      sSwfPath: "swf/copy_csv_xls_pdf.swf"
    sPaginationType: "bootstrap"
    bProcessing: true
    bServerSide: true
    sAjaxSource: $('#users-grid').data('source')

I tried different things with no results (copying the 'media" directory in my app/assets directory, or the swf directory in my assets/backstage/' directory etc...) no luck

Any help would be very appreciated
