(Issue) Devise Registration#Create isn't saving image for user on Prod

[ulternate]

In development the code in Registration#Create would grab a random user icon from the /public/usericons/ folder and then add it to the user object.

This functionality doesn't work anymore in Prod. When a user is created they get given the usericon_#{colour}.png file but Paperclip doesn't save it in the assets directory for the user.

This doesn't break the site, or stop a user signing up. But it will mean they won't have an initial image until they upload their own image.

If I have time this week/early next, I will add some logging to the function and monitor it on the production server.

NB. I've assigned @slehmann36, @jayden2 and myself to this in case they want to have a crack at this beforehand.

In summary, when the user signs up, our Registration#Create method overrides the Devise one, but the only difference is some code I added to randomly pick an image from the usericons folder and upload that using Paperclip. It was working in Dev.

Cheers,

Dan

It is created, but only the original size, not the thumbnail size. Ken and I worked on this for a while and couldn't find a fix.

Any custom uploaded images work find, but not the one auto generated when signing up.

Marking won't fix, although #295 is a hacky change that at least removes the error on the settings pages by using :original rather than :thumb
