Hello! I apologize that I''m posting this here as it probably belongs in a git group, but I figured this was a very standard Rails concern so here goes... I''m wondering what people do as best practices for when you have a multi-staging environment and you have a feature that needs to "hop over" the current test/stage environment? Case in point. Let''s say you

Hi, I''m looking to run several installation of a rails app. Each one has certain unique elements, like database.yml some and some css stuff, possible some templates as well. I''ve set this up like /w/sites/clienta /w/sites/clientb /w/sites/clientc Inside these directories there will be mostly symlinks to: /apps/myapp Urls for these apps will be: http://clienta.example.com

I have everything set up that I need - SVN, webserver (Apache2.2), mongrels, etc. Capistrano is deploying the site well enough, to a point. I need to create sym-links to my file-column created content directories (in shared) and copy the database.yml file (also from shared) into the current folder. I''ve written the following task: desc "Copy the database config file over and set

Hey all - Well, I''ve gone through all of the tutorials I can get my hands on, and I''ve developed what is basically a (very) simple front-end to a database that I maintain online. My big problem now is deployment. Almost everything that I''ve found on the web regarding deployment (and this includes the instructions for Switchtower/Ccapistrano) assumes that I have

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

When I try to do a deployment with Capistrano I get the error "No such file to load -- pathname" when Cap tries to execute reaper. Any ideas what''s causing this or how I can troubleshoot it? (Output follows.) Thanks. Evan -----BEGIN OUTPUT----- [evans-powerbook:~/Desktop/asktheguys] evan% clear ; rake remote:deploy (in /Users/evan/Desktop/asktheguys) loading

Would anybody be interested in tracing a HTTP request/response through a typical Rails scaled server deployment? I already posted something similar on the rails list but the post appears to have disappeared... I am happy to write it up if I can get help at certain stages, I thinking something like this while might not particualy help people on this this list, since you are most likely

Hello Denis, thanks for the answer!!! so for accessing a share on the file server, you'll need to add read rights > for "domain computers" group Is this read permission for the domain computer I need to configure in the deploy software GPO, sharing folder or both? psexec -i -s cmd > net use F: \\server\sharename > dir f: At first I was able to execute the

I have been trying to get Lighttpd working.... we have been using webrick, but want to move to a production quality web server. I followed the instructions found here : http://brainspl.at/pages/rails_stack We are developing on windows and deploying to Fedora Linux. We''re using rails 1.0. The build actually happens on the windows box and using ant transfers the code to the Linux box.

Hi, I''ve been trying to deploy a simple Rails app for a friend on a shared hosting account. I was able to get the Rails application running, but the URL need to end in a slash or else it would result in a 400 Bad Request error. After searching through the Rails I wiki found a page on the exact same error (http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/Non +VHost+Installation, it''s

Hey all, Has anyone out there got Mongrel deployments working with Capistrano? I''ve had a crack at setting it up, and I''ve found that after a deployment (with updated symlinks) that a mongrel restart does not pick up the new deployed site. It seems to me (in my linkted experience) that the HUP that is sent to mongrel does not re-evaluate the ./current symlink that Cap puts in

Hello, I'm looking for some extremely general tips/hints/ideas here, because I am sure that I may be missing out on some good ways of managing the Windows PCs on my network. This is what I have and what is available to me: - Samba 3.0.x (current Debian/Sarge version) - LDAP backend for Samba - Windows XP SP2 clients - Domain users are typically unprivileged users - A

Testing locally I uploaded files into public/system/... folders ( default for Paperclip) Upon deployment ( capistrano) on the remote server, I can see a symlink from public/system to the shared/system/ but the content ( all images ) is not transferred.... I had to do it myself via ftp .. Is it a standard behavior ? or did I miss adding a task in the deployment ? thanks for your feedback --

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

Hello, I thought it worked, but after I uninstalled the software that I deployed via user scope, it did not reinstall. I selected the "Redeploy application" option, but it also did not work. I read that in the user scope there are 2 installation options: - Deployed to User, Assigned Software - Not installed until the default is opened in the Programs Folder in the Start Menu. - Deploy

First off thanks very much for all the hard work on unicorn. Alas, we''ve encountered an issue where unicorn fails to spawn new workers that have loaded the incoming revision on a capistrano deploy. I''m not entirely sure the issue is due to unicorn as it appears that bundler was responsible for a similar issue in the past:

Hello, Iam trying to use Shovel deployment as explained here http://nubyonrails.com/pages/shovel. Iam currently using windows as my development environment and *nix to deploy the application.

Hey Luke, thanks for the help!!! It's working now!!! God bless you and your family!! :D Remember that GPOs need to run as the context of either the computer or the > user.

I couldn''t find the answer in previous posts (hope I didn''t miss it). I have a muti-layer deployment process in which a given deployment depends on previous deployments. How can I know when the fist deployment is finished so I can carry on to the next one? How can I know what is the success rate (assuming multiple nodes deployments)? For example if I want to deploy a web
