Hello, I am trying to figure out how to use switch tower.I have a local copy of source code and I want to put it on the host.Now I dont want to put directories like config/ because the settings on the host and the one on my machine are different. Any way to do this? Also is svn necessary to use SwitchTower? Vivek -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

My needs are far more modest than Capistrano''s capabilities. Also, when working in a shared hosting environment, the Capistrano model can be outside the capabilities allowed by the Web host. I simply need to push selected directories (on a changed-file basis) out to a server. I have about 80% of the code written to do this (I''m considering YAC for the name, with a nod to

Hi all, I want to love capistrano and I''m so close. My error is occuring while running the update_code task...

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

My app is set up without database.yml in version control. I created a shared_path/config dir, and put database.yml in it. After I update the code, I want to link the app''s database.yml file to the shared config. So I added this task desc ''Copy the database config'' task :after_update_code, :roles => :app do run "ln -s #{shared_path}/config/database.yml

I have a few projects with large directories (say, user-uploaded files) that make using Capistrano a bit awkward. However, I suspect that I may have reached the "write a custom task" level. (I suppose I''m just thinking out loud, here...) It seems as though I''d want this directories symlinked in /shared... Maybe there''s a way to extend the

Hey guys. I am starting out with puppet and am in the process of writing a bootstrap script for the clients and a capistrano recipe for the server. I have the client bootstrap done which installs ruby, puppet, sets a host name, and then points the client at the puppet server and now I am in the process of setting up the puppet server. My first attempt was to set up a git project for puppet, an

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,

Hi all, I''m using Capistrano and SVN to version control and deploy, but I''m not sure what to do about my images directory. I use file_column and RMagick to save images to the disk under a model called "Image", and they''re saved in public/image/... etc. Each time I deploy a new version, my image folder doesn''t exist anymore. I don''t want

Hi, Got everything setup nicely with backgroundrb for the development environment and running tests with rspec. However, I have to keep editing the backgroundrb.yml file, to switch between development and testing environment. How can I declare a development, testing and production environment in backgroundrb.yml? Thanks in advance Rai

I am fighting with this for 5 days... i''m getting crazy! Here is my deploy.rb: require "bundler/capistrano" require "rvm/capistrano" # Load RVM''s capistrano plugin. set :rvm_ruby_string, :local # Or whatever env you want it to run in. ''1.9.3'' set :domain, ''www.xxx.com'' set :application,

Hello, Just started to use Capistrano for deployment and everything works beautifully and as advertised. Thanks Jamis for this great piece of software. However, in my case, the deploy task takes quite some time since my SVN repository resides on a different continent than my app/db server and I''ve frozen all the rails code in the vendor dir and checked in. All in all my app sums up to

So, I''m using TechnoWeenie''s recipe ( http://rails.techno-weenie.net/tip/2006/4/3/integrating_file_column_and_capistrano ) for using Capistrano to deploy to a remote machine when the SVN repository isn''t accessible over the Internet. I keep running into a problem, though, with put(File.read("code_update.tar.gz"), "code_update.tar.gz") When Cap

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. You can also define roles for your servers, and then specify that certain tasks apply only to certain roles. Manual: http://manuals.rubyonrails.org/read/book/17 Project:

There seems to be a bug when deploying a rails application developed in windows to a linux box. The rake deploy command attempts to run the command "/install/path/current/script/process/reaper" but the files do not have the execute bit set. What can I do to make sure either the execute bit is run or prepend the command with sh or ruby? Thanks.

Hi all, I have Rails 4.0.0 app, After capistrano deploy my ckeditor_assets are being removed. Could not symlink to shared/ckeditor_assets folder.

When I am using my rails models in my worker class, it appears the background worker class is always using development no matter what I do. I set background.yml to production. I even have ENV[''RAILS_ENV''] ||= ''production uncommented in environment.rb. I don''t have the development db even created on my production box, so not sure where it is getting development

I''m trying to deploy a rails app with no success. I can execute: ''rake remote_exec ACTION=setup'' but when I try to execute : ''rake deploy'' I got this error: loading configuration c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/switchtower-0.10.0 /lib/switchtower/recipes/standard.rb loading configuration ./config/deploy.rb executing task deploy transaction: start

Hi folks, I''ve been staring at this one for far too long. I''m using Windows SVN client + Capistrano to deploy rails app to my hosted server. I can''t seem to get a single successful deployment. I keep getting this "No such file or directory - svn log -q -rhead http://myhost.com/svn/spclient/trunk " . I run this svn command from the cmd prompt and it

Hi, Anyone know where i can find out more info on Reaper/Spawner. Currently, every time i add a new account on my production machine, i have to restart the whole server. After about 150 accounts, this puts a real strain on the server (it takes 3 full minutes before i can access any site on the server). I think reaper/spawner is my answer, but i am havving trouble figuring out how to use it.
