Hello,
I’m having problems deleteing records that doesn’t have attachments even
though the model supports them. When I create a record with a attachment
I can delete it without problems but when it comes to deleting a record
that doesn’t have a attachment I get following error:
TypeError in NewsController#destroy
can’t convert nil into String

That’s probably because it tries to delete a attachment that isn’t
there. Is there any solution to this?
Is it possible to load a local (on a server) image as a attachment and
attach it to the record if the user didn’t upload anything creating the
record?
