Rails - Aug 2006 - Capistrano deployment pathname error

When I try to do a deployment with Capistrano I get the error "No such 
file to load -- pathname" when Cap tries to execute reaper. Any ideas 
what''s causing this or how I can troubleshoot it? (Output follows.)

Thanks.

Evan

it seems the ''pathname'' file is missing. Do you have all the
dependencies of
Rails/Capistrano properly installed? 
I think your app is OK, its just the installation of core libraries which is
missing something.

I concur --

have you ever run reaper locally?  If you have ever "upgraded" rails
(some of us have recently), you may need to run:

rails .

on the current dir to replace the older script/process/reaper tasks.

I *think* they''ve been modified between versions.  Also you could do:

sudo gem install capistrano --include-dependencies

or update instead of install.  cheers.

I''ve double-checked the Rails/Capistrano installations on both my  
dev. machine and deployment machine. Each is installed with all  
dependencies. Also, when I invoke the reaper process manually it  
works fine. It''s only when it is invoked from Capistrano that it does  
not work.

I tried this as well. The reaper script was not replaced or updated  
by the "rails ." command. Neither was boot.rb.

Perplexing. Any other thoughts?
