CityInfo page not saving images

[Jcrowley]

Set up City72 on Heroku and development box (MacOSX10.10). CityInfo saves text, but not images. The database query shows null values for img_url and resident_image_url despite having set files for upload (see image). Happens on Heroku and localhost. Note: I changed email and client url.

Processing by Cms::CitiesController#update as HTML
  Parameters: {"city"=>"{\"id\":1,\"name\":\"TIDES\",\"abbreviation\":\"TIDE\",\"moniker\":\"staff\",\"possessive\":\"TIDES's\",\"color_cd\":0,\"brought_by\":\"TIDES\",\"agency_url\":\"client.net\",\"contact_email\":\"[email protected]\",\"statement\":null,\"image_url\":null,\"resident_image_url\":null,\"affiliates\":[],\"affiliates_attributes\":[]}", "id"=>"1"}
  Mode Load (0.3ms)  SELECT "modes".* FROM "modes" LIMIT 1
  City Load (0.3ms)  SELECT "cities".* FROM "cities" LIMIT 1

   (0.8ms)  COMMIT
  Affiliate Load (0.3ms)  SELECT "affiliates".* FROM "affiliates" WHERE "affiliates"."city_id" = 1

I've never tried to upload images to a local server. I've only done it after deploying. I think this bug could be limited to just local environments. Please note if the problem persists after you deploy.

Thanks for filing the bug!

It happens on Heroku as well. It happened there first, which is why I installed locally to see why. Thanks!

Can you share your heroku instance? I'd be really curious to reproduce this.

Thanks!

Can somebody please try to reproduce this and then write steps to reproduce?
(I suspect you need a large image to get this to reproduce.)

Is there a recommended size/resolution for these images? I am unable to get anything to show up at all.

@rkcheung I found the CMS to be buggy. I'm currently working on a derivative of this project that doesn't rely on the CMS. Depending on how technical you are, you might want to fork https://github.com/gnv-org/gnv instead. If you want to stick to using the CMS, image size (file size) is definitely a factor, but the whole implementation was complicated by the Cloudinary integration, cache time, and the idea of using it as a user-friendly uploader and also a CDN---it's hard to do both things well at all times.

@arena Thanks - I will try yours.
