#reprocess! looks for the file locally

[stylpe]

I have the following model (with omitted sensitive info):

class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_attached_file :file, 
    :styles => { :thumb => ["100x100>", ".png"] },
    :path => "/app/#{ Rails.env}/:attachment/:id/:style/:filename",
    :url => "http://***.com/~*user*/app/#{ Rails.env}/:attachment/:id/:style/:filename",
    :storage => :ftp,
    :ftp_credentials => Rails.root.join('config', 'paperclipftp.yaml')
  validates_attachment_presence :file
  delegate :url, to: :file 
end

File uploads work fine and images get thumbnails properly.

At first I didn't specify that thumbs should be saved as .png, so when I tried uploading a pdf the thumb didn't display correctly. So I added the ".png" setting, which fixes it for new uploads. I then tried to run the rake task:

$ rake paperclip:refresh:thumbnails CLASS=Asset 
rake aborted!
No such file or directory - //app/development/files/2/original/tr11_03.pdf20120217-4756-auwcka.lock

Tasks: TOP => paperclip:refresh:thumbnails
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

So it looks like it tries to access the file locally. Same thing happens when I do it from the Rails console. This isn't critical for me since the error happened in my dev environment and new uploads aren't affected, but I thought I'd report my findings.

I see the same thing. Did you ever find a workaround?

Nope
