similar to: svn and ruby structure

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''ve been mostly lurking here with an occasional nuby question for a few weeks now. It seems like Ruby and Rails and the many libraries and tools growing up around it are a remarkable toolset. Unfortunately I''m finding the whole enchilada a bit daunting. It seems that if one is to truly tap into the power of this thing and do a significant amount of developing, one needs

I created a subversion repository on my new vps and i''m trying to setup my rails app there. However i keep getting this error: subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:2516: (apr_err=13) svn: Can''t create directory ''/home/svnadmin/rapleaf/db/transactions/0-1.txn'': Permission denied How do i fix this? I know others have had this before, so i would appreciate some help.

So I have done a bit of svn''ing. I use RadRails as well so SVN is built in. Question though is I''m not sure exactly how it fits in my Ruby / Rails tree. I imagine I can create one directory, say called SVN and then within there all the sub directories for various svn repositories I might want to download / update from. But what I am not sure about and don''t want to

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

Hello everyone! I''m thinking of the right way to store tmp/ directory of Rails 1.1 project in Subversion. It has cache, session and sockets subdirectories. To me, it looks good to have svn delete tmp/* svn propset svn:ignore "*" tmp So it will ignore all directories and files in tmp/. Even if you create sessions/ and put some files in it, tmp/ content is still ignored. But

I''ve been working on my rails app which will be a web app that i want to launch as a business. Being new to rails i''m wondering what professional web app developers do for their development environment. Right now i''m developing and testing on my laptop. I think i''ve gotten far enough along where i want to put it up on a hosting machine to develop further,

Hi! Can anyone give me some pointers on how to deploy a Rails application developed under Windows with RadRails at a Unix Host (Textdrive). I?ve heard of switch tower, but have never used it. Does it have a routine to convert my Windows Carriage Returns/Line Feeds to Unix style? Is there something else I should know? Also, if somebody can point me to a good tutorial on setting up Rails to

Hi, I''m new at rails and am in the midst of deploying my first app to a test server. The app was developed on windows. I used Capistrano to deploy, and found a few issues: 1) I must chmod 755 dispatch.cgi each time I deploy 2) script/parse/reaper also doesn''t have the executable attributes so the deployment fails. 3) database.yml as checked out from svn isn''t

It looks like the Subversion migration is working. The CVS repository is still there, but in read-only mode. However, the SVN repository preserves the version history of the CVS repository, albeit organized slightly differently. For an introduction to Subversion, this online book is essential: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ It is written by some of the Subversion authors. The only drawback I

I have working copies of code in development on multiple places - work machine, home machine, laptop, etc. I can''t always force these machines to use the same credentials; I end up with each machine having slightly different database.yml configurations. With Subversion-Pre-Capistrano, I left the entire config directory out of Subversion (or some kind of template; see

Hi all, If you are using Pound / Pen or another load balancer, I believe you should read this: http://blog.teksol.info/articles/2006/08/25/subversion-metadata-exposure-on-mongrel My article refers to Dan Benjamin''s http://hivelogic.com/articles/2006/04/30/preventing_svn_exposure My point is that even though we are preventing Apache from serving anything except a select few file

I want to be able to code my rails apps either on my Desktop mac or my Powerbook using textmate. I want to build a Debian server that runs lighttpd, rails and mysql. Would I use samba on the server and access the files that way through TextMate or is there something else that folks use? and should I use subversion and if so, how would I do that in the scanario I''m describing.

To the subversion experts out there: I''d like to set up svn to maintain customizations to my base app for each client. A simple example would be to have a base CSS file and a custom one for each client. What is the best way to set up svn so I can ''co'' the trunc and then ''co'' customizations for each client on top of the base code. I''ve looked

I just burned 3 hours figuring out Subversion, so I made up a little quickstart guide. Try the guide and see if you can get version control going in ... say ... 30 minutes? I assume your situation is: You are setting up version control on a new subdirectory on your computer. You will copy your entire rails project directory tree into the new subdirectory after you get subversion running.

Hi everyone, Where do you all keep your passwords for your apps? Out Subversion repo is locked down to authorized users, and only those users can see code in Trac. Is it safe to store passwords in there? For Rails? For other scripts? What''s your strategy for this? Thanks! Sean

How do I set up a subversion repository so that svn can use an svnserve running locally? I own the repository. svnserve -d -r ... runs as me. svn mkdir -m 'make trunk' svn://localhost/redeye/trunk fails with svn: Authorization failed There is no request for credentials. Is anyone that can willing to share an example that works? I'm running CentOP 6.2 [hennebry at 67-61-185-5 reps]$

Hi all ! Could someone tell me what''s what in the Rails Engines Subversion repository ? There are many folders where the Rails Engine is located, and from the folder names alone, I can''t really guess what''s what. For example, the rails engine plugin is situated at: plugins/engine engines/trunk branches/engines branches/edge_engines From the log, I gather
