ROOT_URL and File Not Found :( about meteor-files HOT 12 CLOSED

1. Have you checked the generated links by fileURL template helper?
2. Can you locate files to confirm what they are uploaded and exists?

fileURL template helper is using __meteor_runtime_config__.ROOT_URL which is set from ROOT_URL env.var, see here

from meteor-files.

1. Yes I generate links with fileURL, and I change the port only, so...
2. Of course, if I change back the port number, all image visible again.

Maybe the collection definition wrong?

Images = new FilesCollection(
collectionName: 'images'
allowClientCode: false
storagePath: 'ak/images'
onBeforeUpload: (file) ->
# Allow upload files under 10MB, and only in png/jpg/jpeg formats
if file.size <= 10485760 and /png|jpg|jpeg/i.test(file.ext)
true
else
'Please upload image, with size equal or less than 10MB'
)

from meteor-files.

1. Definition looks ok
2. The link is changing? Port is not missed? Could you post the link?
3. What output you're getting when passing __meteor_runtime_config__.ROOT_URL to browser's console?
4. Have you tried to set debug to true, could you post here Server's output with debug option?

OK, this very strange.
I have two running system, the second rsynced from the first.
The first started with
ROOT_URL=http://palpinter.dlinkddns.com:3030 meteor --port 3030
The following (and all) picture is exist:
http://palpinter.dlinkddns.com:3030/cdn/storage/images/eAy8AJk5vYtmodWTi/original/eAy8AJk5vYtmodWTi.jpg
meteor_runtime_config.ROOT_URL is 'http://palpinter.dlinkddns.com:3030'

The second started with:
ROOT_URL=http://palpinter.dlinkddns.com:3060 meteor --port 3060
The same picture:
http://palpinter.dlinkddns.com:3060/cdn/storage/images/eAy8AJk5vYtmodWTi/original/eAy8AJk5vYtmodWTi.jpg
the result is: 'File Not Found :('
meteor_runtime_config.ROOT_URL is 'http://palpinter.dlinkddns.com:3060'

Both instance is absolutely identical. Everything works in the app except images.

And if the first started with 3060 port, and the second with 3030, the second will works, and the first wont.

You can access both of them now. There is english language version. You can select with flags in upper right corner.

From my end both urls returns 404 (may it be cache on your machine?):

1. http://palpinter.dlinkddns.com:3060/cdn/storage/images/eAy8AJk5vYtmodWTi/original/eAy8AJk5vYtmodWTi.jpg
2. http://palpinter.dlinkddns.com:3030/cdn/storage/images/eAy8AJk5vYtmodWTi/original/eAy8AJk5vYtmodWTi.jpg
3. Are you sure those files is transferred via rsync?
4. Have you checked permissions after transferring files via rsync? Try to run chmod -R 777 /path/to/uploaded/files

P.S. I'm off for today, I'll ping you tomorrow

from meteor-files.

OK, thanks.

OK, the problem not with FILE_URL at all. The real problem is when I restart meteor something delete all images in:
.meteor/local/build/programs/server/ak/images
directory.
The images came from cache by the way.

from meteor-files.

The problem is bigger than I thought.

Steps to reproduce:
git clone https://github.com/VeliovGroup/Meteor-Files
cd Meteor-Files/demo-simplest-upload
meteor npm install
meteor

upload a file
check .meteor/local/build/programs/server/assets/app/uploads/Images directory - file exist
restart meteor
check .meteor/local/build/programs/server/assets/app/uploads/Images directory - file doesnt exist

Now what should I do. Every restart delete all uploaded files

from meteor-files.

It's expected behaviour, that's why I asked you multiple times to check physical file existence.
Meteor rebuilds itself on dev-stage, and removes everything what not belongs to it.
Place storage folder outside of the .meteor directory, like /data/meteor/uploads/ and make sure it's writable for user used to run node/meteor command

OK, thank you. I'll try.
