I''ve recently been attempting to deploy my application (using Apache,
Mongrel and Capistrano on a Ubuntu box) and have hit a problem trying to
set :repository in deploy.rb. (I have been following chapter 27 in AWDwR
v2, and various online resources.)
The structure on the server is as follows:
- rails app in /home/tim/rails/test_project
- subversion repository in /home/tim/svn/test_project/trunk
My deploy.rb has the following lines
set :application, "test_project"
set :user, "tim"
set :repository,
"http://#{user}@[subdomain].[domain]/home/#{user}/svn/#{application}/trunk"
set :deploy_to, "/home/#{user}/rails/#{application}"
set :mongrel_conf, "config/mongrel_cluster.yml"
When I run rake remote:cold_deploy I get
-- snip --
* querying latest revision...
svn: PROPFIND request failed on ''/''
svn: PROPFIND of ''/'': 405 Method Not Allowed
(http://ctru.sheffield.ac.uk)
-- end snip --
I''ve also tried changing the :repository value to
"svn://#{user}@[subdomain].[domain]/home/#{user}/svn/#{application}/trunk"
but get this error instead:
-- snip --
svn: Can''t connect to host ''ctru.sheffield.ac.uk'': No
connection could
be made b
ecause the target machine actively refused it.
-- end snip --
Does anyone have any idea where I''m going wrong? I''m new to
Capistrano
(and also Subversion) so I''ve probably done something silly somewhere.
Thank you.

AT first I sssumed they were placeholder so as not to give it away to us on the list, but since you later mention the domain, I''m guessing you actually have [subdomain].[domain] in your :repository. If so, that''s wrong :-) If not, my mistake :-) Second, assuming you have the correct url in there, the subversion repositrory would have to actually be shared over Apache. DO you know for sure thats the case ? If you type "http://#{user}@[subdomain].[domain]/home/#{user}/svn/#{application}/trunk" all of that with the placeholders filled in, do you see anything? If not, it''s likely that there''s no web-accessible repository. If you''re deploying to the same physical machine that the repository is on, you could replace the :repository with a file:// url file:///home/tim/svn/test_project/trunk And try that ?

Oops. (So, just to clarify, I''d > actually written ctru.sheffield.ac.uk.)OK :-) Good.> No. Should I share it? And how might I do this?Its the best way to get your svn repository accessible from anywhere. Do you have control of that web server ? Can you install modules ? If so, you can do it, but it;s probably beyond the scope of this mailing list :-) I''m not clear "who I''m talking to", if you know what I mean :-) If you''re a student at the college with no real access to this kind of infrastructure, just a normal account, you''re probably not going to really get much further going this route. If, in fact, you can admin all this stuff, you should go get the Pragmatic Version Control book by Mike Mason (instant PDF purchase!) which is a fantastic help in getting subversion installed, configured and shared. So...that all said, regardless of Apache, I''d have thought we could get cap to talk to the local svn repository (the cap process runs on the server, not the client, so when it runs it should be able to see your repos).>> If you''re deploying to the same physical machine that the repository is >> on, you could replace the :repository with a file:// url >> >> file:///home/tim/svn/test_project/trunk >> >> And try that ? > > I am deploying on the same physical machine, but "rake > remote:cold_deploy" yields > > svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL > svn: Unable to open repository ''file:///home/tim/svn/test_project/trunk''OK. If you ssh into your account and cd into /home/tim/svn and ls, what do you see ? Is there definitely an svn repository there ? Created with svnadmin ? Is it read and writable by you ? while you''re sshed in, mkdir /home/tim/workingcopy cd /home/tim/workingcopy svn co file:///home/tim/svn/test_project/trunk test_project Can you successfully checkout the project ?> Thank you very much for your help.Absolutely no bother. I read the list online, rather than email, which means it may be a while between me replying, you replying and me reading again :-) If you dont hear from me, you can mail me on gmail (alancfrancis) and give me a poke.
