I'm posting this follow-up here for the benefit of the forum. Thanks again! --- I have narrowed down the cause of my issue a bit further. I am using parseexcel in a backgroundrb worker to parse a spreadsheet that was uploaded through a web form and then stored in the database. When I use parseexcel in the console to parse the original file, it works fine. However, when I parse the temp file that I create from the database it throws this exception. The files are of identical size, but a call to diff reports that they do indeed differ. Excel, however, opens the temp file without issue. Regards, Jason -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
