Rails 5 on heroku forgets files stored with paperclip and turbolinks: No route matches

Question

I have a blog with file up-/download via paperclip 5.1.0 and turbolinks 5.0.1. Upload without validation works fine now, but download is only working for a short period after up

Answer 1

This is the root cause: When the dyno is restartet periodically or with heroku restart then the filesystem is initialised and new.

I am still struggling to add Amazon S3 persistence to my app...

Answer 2

New git version of paperclip gem now works with aws-sdk-s3 gem, add this to Gemfile:

#Paperclip
gem 'paperclip', git: 'git://github.com/thoughtbot/paperclip.git'
