Documents Not Converting Properly in Scribd

Reported by jaredbrown (at gmail) | June 26th, 2010 @ 03:38 PM

Paperclip storing to S3 [Current gem versions] (Tested and working)
scribd_fu 2.0.6
scribd-rscribd 1.0.3

Doc stored in S3 @ http://s3.amazonaws.com/talentopoly-resumes/documents/21/about-bloc...

Issue: Document appears in Scribd with 0 pages and the following message:

"Oh, no! Your upload has failed. Our software was unable to determine the file type.

Please try uploading the same document in PDF format. This is the format our conversion system is most comfortable with."

Uploading Doc From Local Storage: Works
Uploading Doc Directly on Scribd.com: Works

Permissions for file in S3: Open/Download for Everyone (Being set by default)

I can download the file via URL and view it locally fine.

Any ideas?

    It appears the issue is the cache-busting ?1277580374 at the end.

    The following line in paperclip.rb needs to strip the ?1277580374 off if attached_file.url is used.

    attached_file.url =~ ScribdFu::S3 ? attached_file.url : attached_file.path

    Returns the full filename for the given attribute. If the file is

    stored on S3, this is a full S3 URI, while it is a full path to the

    local file if the file is stored locally.

    def file_path
    if attached_file.url =~ ScribdFu::S3

    pos = attached_file.url.rindex('?')
    pos > 0 ? attached_file.url[0, pos] : attached_file.url
    

    else

    attached_file.path
    

    end end

    Odd. What version of Rails are you using? I've never noticed the "cache string" being appended to S3 URLs before?
