similar to: deploying with capistrano - web site responds much faster

I''d like to announce the second release of capistrano-runit-tasks, available from http://rubyforge.org/projects/cappy-runit/ It now supports: * File based templates * sv as the service control command in addition to runsvctrl * A much simpler interface for creating additional services. More work still needs to be done though! == TODO * Allow add_service to create more than one

I''m doing some searching for deployment options, and I feel like I''m getting buried in a lot of new technology and assumptions that I know all that it''s dependent on. In the past I''ve done small things with PHP where I just dump the app in a folder and everything works out of the box. I found that everyone is using Capistrano, which relies on Subversion

I''m wondering if anyone has built a Capistrano task that will deploy mongrel either standalone or along with a rails app. I''ve been looking at possibilities for doing this but still new to using both having switched from using FCGI+Lighty and deploying by hand. Thanks, Curtis

Hi, I would like to deploy a RoR application from my local machine to a remote host. Looks like the capistrano assumes that you are using an internet accessible host for the SVN repository and doesn''t checkout files using file:///! Did I miss some configuration? How do other people handle their application deployment from your local machine? Thanks for your feedback. Regards, Hari

I''m deploying via capistrano but when I try and do a bundle install it asks for my password to install the gems. I give it a password but oddly enough the password appears on the console in plain text and when I press enter, nothing happens. I waited for a couple hours and still nothing happened, so how am I supposed to run bundler with capistrano? -- You received this message because

All, I was wondering if it''s possible (and how) to deploy a rails app to a windows box using capistrano.

Hi, I am trying to set up capistrano for use on textdrive, and followed the instructions posted at this very helpful site: http://blog.tuples.us/pages/rails-guide My problem is that when I try to execute rake remote:exec ACTION=cold_deploy the execution getss stuck when it tries to access my subversion repository. ** [out :: myurl.com] Authentication realm: <http://myurl.com:80>

When deploying with Capistrano, what''s the recommended start ordering for BackgrounDRb? mongrel_stop backgroundrb_restart mongrel_start - or - mongrel_restart backgroundrb_restart - or - backgroundrb_restart mongrel_restart Or does it matter? Cheers, Brett

I have three distinct configurations I need to maintain: - local dev - staging server (for client approval and test) - production server Right now I''m relying on rsync and sweat to get things right. Obviously Capistrano looks like the silver bullet, but it seems to rely on Subversion over http as a dependency. Is this correct? I''m running svn on my local machine and backing

ok, i was wrong. the failure on deployment using capistrano is 100% using these commands ## Our Handlers desc "Restart BackgrounDrb" task :restart_uploader, :roles => :app do run "#{current_path}/script/backgroundrb stop" run "#{current_path}/script/backgroundrb start" end here is the console post deploy on the remote server ######## [current]$

Hi. I am using Capistrano for my webapp and after deploy I need to restart memcached service. I am trying to do it with sudo "/etc/init.d/memcached restart" But it does not do it, even if memcached service existed - after deployment memcached service is off. I did some researching and added run "sleep 40" right after sudo command and found that service process existed

I''m NOT working on an enterprisey big time rails application; just something for my personal site. I''ve been deploying via local> git push origin master remote> git pull origin remote> sudo /etc/init.d/httpd restart Trying to decide if this is sufficient, or if learning capistrano and setting that up will give me any advantages over this? Thanks, Dave

Hi, since today I have some issue when I try to stop / start / restart unicorn I can''t understand why but it seems to be mixing my local user and my server user on config/unicorn/production.rb I have user ''userserver'', ''userserver'' where ''userserver'' is the name of the user on server so when I launch command cap unicorn:restart I

I am having issues when using unicorn with a Capistrano deployment. >From what I have been able to understand Capistrano uses a scheme in wich every release is deployed inside the releases directory under a unique name and if the transaction was successful, creates a symlink named current that will point to that release. So I end up with a deployment directory such as:

I''m using the Shovel recipe to deploy my lovely app to text drive. everyhting seems to be ok apart from the deploy action which fails saying that there is "No such file or directory" I''ve included the full error listing below. The SVN definately exists because we''re using for development. Does any one have any ideas what might be going wrong? Thanks Tom

Hello. I recently deployed my new rails application. Everything went fine, except for the fast that my mongrel cluster managed by Capistrano is only serving up the first revision. For instance, i one of my revisions I added a new action to my application. I checked it into svn, and ran cap deploy in my application''s root directory. I didn''t get any serious errors, except for

I''m attempting to auto deploy a rails application to a development server periodically during ongoing development. I''ve setup ssh keys to allow the proper user auto login permissions, but have ran into 2 issues. 1. When the script is run from a cron job as the same user as I currently manually deploy from I receive an error when reaper tries to execute - "can''t

The recent Rails security issue highlighted a concern I''ve had about Rails deploys; namely, you shouldn''t deploy anything to production that you don''t need there. Rails apps have a number of scripts--potential security holes or DOS targets in this case--along with all the other application code you need. There''s no reason you should have script/server, console,

Greetings, Today I''ve been working out how to begin using Capistrano and so far I''m impressed. Even in my situation, learning Rails and deploying to a single server, it''s incredibly helpful. I do have one small question though: In using Subversion I''ve used the "ignore" feature to ignore my local database.yml file, because my local database and

I have noticed that occasionally (about 50% of the time) when i deploy (using capistrano) my app to a production server, i have to ssh into the box and manually stop and start backgroundrb to get it to load my workers. this is my basic setup i have 2 workers: lib/workers/mp3_worker.rb => takes a hash of params to downsample an mp3 lib/workers/flv_worker.rb => takes a has of
