Ferret talk - Jan 2008 - strange capistrano problem

When trying to start ferret with capistrano, I keep getting this:

$ cap services:ferret:stop
domain [redken.digitalpulp.com] :
user [john] :
   * executing `services:ferret:stop''
   * executing "cd /srv/rails/redken/current; script/ferret_server -e  
production stop"
     servers: ["redken.digitalpulp.com"]
Password:
     [redken.digitalpulp.com] executing command
*** [err :: redken.digitalpulp.com] no such file to load -- /bin/../ 
config/environment
*** [err :: redken.digitalpulp.com]
     command finished
command "cd /srv/rails/redken/current; script/ferret_server -e  
production stop" failed on redken.digitalpulp.com


Running the same command manually on the server, it is successful. I  
have tried both as a regular user and as root.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
John

More info-- here is the relevant code, in lib/server_manager.rb

   ENV[''FERRET_USE_LOCAL_INDEX''] = ''true''
   ENV[''RAILS_ENV''] =
$ferret_server_options[''environment'']
   #require(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), ''../../../../config/ 
environment''))
   require(File.join(File.dirname(ENV[''_'']),
''../config/environment''))
   require ''acts_as_ferret''
   ActsAsFerret::Remote::Server.new.send($ferret_server_action)

so, it seems that in some contexts, ENV[''_''] is coming up with
/bin/.

Thanks,
John

I just noticed that trunk has more sophisticated logic here:

   #require(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), ''../../../../config/ 
environment''))
   if $ferret_server_options[''root'']
     require File.join($ferret_server_options[''root''],
''config'',
''environment'')
   else
     require(File.join(File.dirname(ENV[''_'']),
''../config/environment''))
   end


Jens-- how stable is trunk? Do you anticipate a point release any  
time soon?

Thanks!
John
