similar to: Capistrano and mongrel not deploying latest revision from SVN

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 am deploying a Rails website using Capistrano to a VPS running the site through Apache and Mongrel. ''cap deploy'' works fine, and mongrels are restarted. When I execute ''cap deploy:rollback'', however, my script fails to restart the mongrels giving this error: !!! PID file tmp/pids/mongrel.5000.pid already exists. Mongrel could be running already.

Hey all: When using capistrano and/or manually restarting mongrel clusters we encounter errors when restarting that states: ** !!! PID file log/mongrel.8010.pid already exists. Mongrel could be running already. Check your log/mongrel.log for errors. ** !!! Exiting with error. You must stop mongrel and clear the .pid before I''ll attempt a start. ** !!! PID file log/mongrel.8011.pid

Hello, I am trying to deploy on to OS X Server with capistrano+mongrel+apache2, etc. I''m trying to do a "cap cold_deploy" as recommended here: http://blog.codahale.com/2006/06/19/time-for-a-grown-up-server-rails-mongrel-apache-capistrano-and-you/ I had a devil of a time getting cap to find the mongrel_rails command (which is in /opt/local/bin) on the server. I set the

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

I''m running Apache 2.0 as a proxy to several Mongrel/Rails apps, so that all of my Mongrel apps can be routed through the single Apache IP address. Apache 2.0 is already in use on the system, which is why I haven''t decided to use Apache 2.2. The problem I''m having is that this setup only works for Rails apps that do not use the public/index.html file as the main

Hi, Can anyone shed any light on why "reaper" (whilst seemingly working re restarting my mongrel ruby process) does not pick up changes to my application? (e.g. changing a title in a view for example). It''s like the "mongrel_rails start etc..." is just restarting the current process but ignoring the new details re where the new application directory is. That is

Hi all, I am out of my head here... I have a 3 node cluster with 10 mongrels running on each. When I deploy, I break all the mongrels every time. I have tried just about everything. I can restart my mongrels without a hitch manually, it''s only when I use cap deploy. Maybe I am missing something here... so if I can get some help it would be appreciated. The errors are the typical mongrel

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

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]$

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''m running Apache 2.0 as a proxy to several Mongrel/Rails apps, so that all of my Mongrel apps can be routed through the single Apache IP address. The problem I''m having is that this setup works well for apps that do not use the public/index.html file as the main page. For any apps that do use public/inedx.html as the main page, none of the links off of index.html work. So no

I want to deploy my rails app in a subdir, lets say: http://a.com/b/c/ (so: http://a.com/b/c/posts/new) for as far as i understand no i''ll have to 1. prefix my routes with "b/c/" 2. prefix the javascript and stylesheets paths with "b/c/" in my layouts i can think of numerous ways to make me only have to set the prefix in one place, yet i wonder if there is no

Hi. I am using BackgrounDRb to process thumbnails and upload to S3 - things are hunky-dory in development (thumbs are generated, these are uploaded to S3, the metadata is saved to trhe DB, and I get a nice status page updated by periodic calls via ask_status), but when I tried to deploy to our staging server and stop/start BackgrounDRb via Capistrano, things blew up - well, not exactly,
