Rails - Mar 2006 - SwitchTower deployment has errors with different :db server

When I define :db to be a different server than either :web or :app, and run
"rake deploy". Switchtower will abort with an
Net::SSH::AuthenticationFailed
error. The version of Switchtower I''m using is 1.0.0 and the deploy
task is
the default supplied with Switchtowe.

However, I dont have any problem when :db is changed to the same as :web and
:app.

It sounds like the user/password combo you are using for the web and  
app servers is not valid for the db server. Are you sure you can log  
into the db server with the same credentials as those you use on the  
web and app server?

- Jamis

the login credentials are different for the web server and the db server. I
was under the assumption that Switchtower uses the login details from
database.yml for this?

No, the database.yml does not (necessarily) describe the login  
credentials for the server itself--it only gives you access to the  
database--and so cannot be used as a reliable source for the login  
info. SwitchTower treats all of your servers equally, and requires  
that they all have the same login. There is not currently a way to  
work around that restriction (that I''m aware of).

okay, thanks for the clarification, Jamis.
