I need to upload some large CSV files via mongoid-paperclip and I am getting error
Uploaded file2 my_file has an extension that does not match its contents
.
In terminal I can see this error as
[paperclip] Content Type Spoof: my_file.csv (["text/csv", "text/comma-separated-values"]), content type discovered from file command: application/octet-stream.
See documentation to allow this combination.
Ok, I set validation as do_not_validate_attachment_file_type :my_file
It does not help same error.
In application.rb
I add this line
Paperclip.options[:content_type_mappings] = { jpeg: 'image/jpeg', jpg: 'image/jpeg' }
Then changed to this
Paperclip.options[:content_type_mappings] = { csv: 'text/csv'}
It also does not help, same error
Uploaded file2 my_file has an extension that does not match its contents
.
Then I changed validation to validates_attachment_content_type :my_file, :content_type => 'text/csv'
It also did not help. Then I found some one suggesting to do this
`require 'paperclip/media_type_spoof_detector'
module Paperclip
class MediaTypeSpoofDetector
def spoofed?
false
end
end
end
But where I should do this? in which file? in which directory? (I am using rails 4.0) If any one knows how to fix this error, please let me know! Thank you! `
Finally! this helped me!!!
#config/initilizers/paperclip.rb
require 'paperclip/media_type_spoof_detector'
module Paperclip
class MediaTypeSpoofDetector
def spoofed?
false
end
end
end
