How can I upload image in S3 by carrierwave and save filename in database?

Question

I tried to upload photo in s3 using carrierwave and fog gem but it had error.

undefined method captures' for nil:NilClass . in line : . in line : if @premium.save` in controller/action create

  def create
@premium = Article.new(premium_params)
@premium.created_date = Time.now
  if @premium.save
    redirect_to admincp_premium_path(@premium.id)
  else
    respond_to do |format|
     format.html { render :new }
     format.json { render json: @premium.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
    end
  end

end

This is my code:

carrierwave.rb

    CarrierWave.configure do |config|
    config.fog_credentials = {
      :provider               => 'AWS',
      :aws_access_key_id      => ENV['S3_KEY'],
      :aws_secret_access_key  => ENV['S3_SECRET'],
      :region                => ENV['S3_REGION'],
       :path_style            => true
  }
  config.cache_dir = "#{Rails.root}/tmp/uploads"
  config.fog_directory  = ENV['S3_BUCKET']
end

In article_controller.rb

def create
@premium = Article.new(premium_params)
@premium.created_date = Time.now
  if @premium.save
    redirect_to admincp_premium_path(@premium.id)
  else
    respond_to do |format|
     format.html { render :new }
     format.json { render json: @premium.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
    end
  end

end` In model artcle.rb

Class Article < ActiveRecord::Base
   ...
   # set file upload image
  mount_uploader :image, ImageUploader
end.

Thanks for saving my life :D.

I had the same problem. I was able to resolve it by adjusting the :region in my CarrierWave config .

I'm using S3's US Standard region for my bucket, and I set region: 'us-east-1' , which is the default. When I previously used a bucket in Oregon setting region: 'us-west-2' worked (an option which is not listed in the region options in the CarrierWave/fog.rb .)
