NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError for *.jpg

[abrambailey]

I am receiving this error occasionally from my server, which is running Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.2.0-40-virtual x86_64):

  Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError
  app/models/user.rb:142:in `avatar_geometry'

Here is line user.rb:142 @geometry[style] ||= Paperclip::Geometry.from_file(avatar.path(style))

I cannot seem to replicate this error with other jpg images, so I'm having a real hard time isolating the issue. This is from user.rb:

    has_attached_file :avatar, :styles  => { :small => "100x100#", :thumbnail=> "200x200", :medium =>"300x300", :large => "500x500>" }, :default_url => "avatar_unknown.jpg", :processors => [:cropper]

Finally, cropper.rb:

module Paperclip
  class Cropper < Thumbnail
    def transformation_command
      if crop_command
        crop_command + super.join(' ').sub(/ -crop \S+/, '').split(' ') # super returns an array like this: ["-resize", "100x", "-crop", "100x100+0+0", "+repage"]
      else
        super
      end
    end

    def crop_command
      target = @attachment.instance
      if target.cropping?
        ["-crop", "#{target.crop_w}x#{target.crop_h}+#{target.crop_x}+#{target.crop_y}"]
      end
    end
  end
end

Using ImageMagick 6.6.9-7 and paperclip 4.1.1

Just a quick update that delegates for *.jpg do not appear to be the issue:

app@mothership:~$ identify /tmp/RackMultipart20151116-31114-hqi89z.jpg
/tmp/RackMultipart20151116-31114-hqi89z.jpg JPEG 2400x3000 2400x3000+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 4.235MB 0.000u 0:00.039

@abrambailey could you figure out your issue?

Closing due to lack of activity. If this is still an issue for you, let me know and we continue triaging this. Thanks!

[abrambailey]

@tute Sorry about that, I guess I solved this, and can't even remember how now.
