This is for Rahoul, not the OP:

Rails 4.1 introduced the #config_for method on the Rails application,
which makes all the reading, erbing, and yamling of config files really
super simple. You can change your above initializer to:

STORAGE_CONFIG = Rails.application.config_for(:storage)
AqrReports::Application.config.image_options = STORAGE_CONFIG['images']
AqrReports::Application.config.file_options = STORAGE_CONFIG['files']

From the looks of things, you may need to rearrange your storage.yml to
be in the same structure as database.yml.
