Question

I install Redactor-rails ruby gem with instructions from official page on github SammyLin/redactor-rails , all it's ok, but when I'm trying to upload image I have error like this:

Explain me please why I have this error, i google I've found nothing about this error.

Answer 1

I had the same issue. Just install the ImageMagick package on your system.

e.g. for Ubuntu,

sudo apt-get install imagemagick

Answer 2

what uploader are you using? i suggest you use carrierwve gem, and here are the isntructions for it:

gem "carrierwave"
gem "mini_magick"

$ rails generate redactor:install

or

$ rails generate redactor:install --devise

# --devise option generate user_id attribute for asset(Picture, Document) models. For more details show Devise gem.
# Now, Pictures and Documents uploading available only for signed in users
# All uploaded files will stored with current user_id
# User will choose only own uploaded Pictures and Documents

$ rake db:migrate
