similar to: I have a Capistrano 1.1 patch - where does it go?

All, I have successfully executed the "deploy" task in Capistrano/Switchtower to establish a symbolic link named "current" which points to the current version of my app. on my remote server. My app. was already deployed to the existing Rails root directory (call it "appname") though. I have Apache fronting my app. through a virtual host whose doc. root is itself

All, Does anyone know if Capistrano/Switchtower actually does anything on the database server as part of the "deploy" task? I''m pretty sure that it doesn''t, but thought I would verify. Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

All, Does anyone has any experience with Capistrano against a CVS repository? I am unable to successfully pull a revision onto my remote server when hitting a CVS repository. Here is the relevant output from the cap "update_code" task: * executing "if [[ ! -d ~dusan/eSimplyTest/releases/20060410205540 ]]; then\n cd ~dusan/eSimplyTest/releases;\n

Capistrano is a utility for executing tasks in parallel across multiple remote hosts. It was formerly known as SwitchTower. Installation: gem install capistrano Manual: http://manuals.rubyonrails.org/read/book/17 Version 1.1 introduces a few changes: * Renamed! Due to the trademark infringement debacle of last week, we had to change the name. Moving forward it will be known as

When I create a task within capistrano.rb I can call it using rake. When I create a task and put it in deploy.rb I can call it. Neither with or without the remote: namespace. Anyone have any insight into why it does not work? John Kopanas

Hi, I have created a small :restart task to overwrite the default one: task :restart, :roles => :app do sudo "/etc/init.d/lighttpd stop" sudo "/etc/init.d/lighttpd start" end This works fine and lighty does restart, but the last command never finishes, so I never return to the prompt. Here''s my output: cap restart loading configuration

I''ve recently upgraded my box from Ubuntu Breezy to Dapper, and for the life of me can''t figure out why I''m getting this exception thrown. I''ve switched from Switchtower to Capistrano, and when I run rake deploy I get this output: ** [update_code] exception while rolling back: NameError, uninitialized constant Net::SSH::Transport::OSSL

All, Just read in the Capistrano manual about the Capistrano "migrate" task. There it says that: "By default, all this task does is change to the directory of your current release (as indicated by the current symlink), and run rake RAILS_ENV=production migrate. You can specify that it should run against the latest release (regardless of what the current release is) by setting

I can''t get past the setup step in Capistrano. I know the paths are correct and I''m using zsh locally (bash on remote), so the shell shouldn''t be a problem. It never asks for the SSH password, even. Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Kenneth -- => the blog from beyond <= => www.eyeheartzombies.com <=

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

What do you do when the ftp login username is different then the svn username? Every time I try to deploy it gets stuck right here: [kopanas.com] executing command ** [out :: kopanas.com] Authentication realm: <http://kopanas.com:80> kopanas.com ** [out :: kopanas.com] Password for ''jkopanas'': ** [out :: kopanas.com] subversion is asking for a password ** [out ::

Im trying to deploy with capistrano from win32 to Linux but no success.

Just a quickie, Hope I''m not going crazy here but I''m sure I''ve seen a screencast for capistrano recently... maybe posted on a blog somewhere. Can anyone remember where it is? Thanks -henry

Hi all, I am starting out to play with capistrano. I installed the capistrano gem, and I got some messages. I am not sure if these are errors, warnings or just status messages.I hope someone here can help me understand these messages, so that I don''t suspect Capistrano installation if I run into issues further down. :-) binil$ gem install -r capistrano Attempting remote installation

This could be entirely my imagination, but it _feels_ like my apps are ever so slightly less responsive after deploying with Capistrano. Is that even possible? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/attachments/20060417/73f30cef/attachment.html

Does it make sense that if I type cap show_tasks it works but when I type rake show_tasks I get: rake aborted! Don''t know how to build task ''show_tasks'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.0/lib/rake.rb:1287:in `[]'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.0/lib/rake.rb:300:in `[]''

Hello, Can someone explain me why Capistrano deploys rails code to both :web and :db roles, not only to :app role, which is the only role that actually needs this code. In my setup I do not want to give any SSH access to :db servers other than server management, which is done outside Capistrano. So why Capistrano migrate task needs this access while it could to it from :app server, which

I''m trying to get capistrano to deploy to an osx machine - rake remote:cold_deploy but it fails on the svn co line with "bash: line 2: svn: command not found" I''ve set the proper path to svn (/usr/local/bin) in both .bash_profile and .bash_login but capistrano seems to be ignoring these. How does capistrano know where to look for svn? Thanks

Hi everyone, I have deployed a rails tumblelog site via capistrano, but have run into a problem. What I am wanting to do is this: In my deployment script create symlinks from the public directory so that the images directory points to a shared images directory. Reason being is I am adding an image upload to the site (not file_column) and need to easily add the uploaded images and thumbs into

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
