Jamis, I''ve spent hours trying to get Capistrano working, to no avail. I''m hosting over at www.railsplayground.com, and here''s their instructions I''ve been following: http://tinyurl.com/hyo93 I can''t get past step 7. When I execute "rake remote:setup", I get a rake aborted! message. When I do a "rake --tasks", I get only a small subset of commands - the support guy at the host sent me a screen shot of his "rake --tasks", and he''s got a LOT more commands than I do. What am I doing wrong? Or are his instructions wrong? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

See my earlier thread ''Capistrano on windows (again)'' for specific details of my problem. I think the issue lies with the windows environment. We could be missing a required library al
Alan, I finally resolved the problem. I simply created a new rails app, copied my existing app into the new app''s folders, and then followed the setup procedure for Capistrano. All is well now. I *think* the problem had to do with the file ''Rakefile'' in the app''s root folder. Before I generated the new app, this file was pretty big - and I had never manually touched it. The new file is very short, 10 lines to be exact. Hope this helps... -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
