I''m trying to use SwitchTower to deploy from XP to Dreamhost. Based on <http://nubyonrails.com/pages/shovel_dreamhost>, my deploy.rb looks like: set :user, ''dankohn'' set :application, "flydash.com" set :repository, "http://svn.flydash.com/flydash/flydash" #set :repository, "svn+ssh://home/#{user}/svn/flydash" #set :repository,

I''d like to get SwitchTower to checkout from different repositories per role? The db role checks out different stuff from the app role, etc. I don''t mind redefining SwitchTower::SCM::Subversion.checkout. But I''m not sure the best way to do it. How would that method parameterize the repository based on role? It''d be something like this: command =

I''m trying to get switchtower to work with CVS. I see "querying latest revision..." and then it states "[update_code] transaction: rollback" I''m open to any and all suggestions at this point. I put some logging statements in the switchtower code and it seems to fail at this statement in switchtower-0.10.0/lib/switchtower/scm/cvs.rb @latest_revision =

I use Switchtower to deploy my Ruby on Rails application, which works great. However, it appears to be doing a SVN checkout, which includes all the .svn directories as well. I would rather do an export from SVN. Is it possible to configure Switchtower to do this, or can I extend it in the deploy.rb? I haven''t been able to find any examples on the internet so far. thanks, Jeroen

For those who want use switchtower to deploy to a remote server that does not have access to the main subversion repository, here is a task I just hacked up to use switchtower to deploy to my servers by copying a local directory to the servers, rather than have the servers use svn checkout. I actually create my local directory using an svn export, but you can do whatever you like here, and just

Hi everyone, What are other people doing with regards to database.yml being in version control? My dilema: I set up my rails app in svn using these instructions: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUseRailsWithSubversion The part to note is where I ignore database.yml, allowing different developers to keep their own database.yml without clobbering other developers'' files.

Hi, Has anyone experiences using SwitchTower (Windows) in a shared hosting environment (Textdrive)?

Hi ! Following the manual, section 2.6 describes how to replace the restart task. Since I''m using Lighttpd and SCGI, I did the following: desc "Restart the web server" task :restart, :roles => :app do sudo "cd #{deploy_to}/#{current} && scgi_cluster stop < #{deploy_to}/#{current}/config/.password" sudo "cd #{deploy_to}/#{current} &&

I tried using ST, but it didn''t work with the csh shell. Today I decided to make it work, and came up with the very simple solution of wrapping the failed commands inside a bash instance.

SwitchTower is a utility that can execute commands in parallel on multiple servers. It allows you to define tasks, which can include commands that are executed on the servers.

Hi everyone. I''m choosing an SCM for my current Rails project. Up until now, for my other (non-Rails) codings, I used Darcs and liked it very much. I''d prefer to use Darcs for my Rails development as well. Looking into the matter, I''m somewhat deterred by the appearant dominance of Subversion as the SCM tool of choice for Rails hackers. Is there a technical reason for
