I''m having problems launching the spin process via the deploy.rb task. Everything works great when is run the script manually via: % ssh admin@monterey.example.net /Web/Rails/Example/current/script/spin However, when I run ''cap spinner'' or ''rake remote:exec ACTION=spinner'', I get the following errors: % cap spinner loading configuration

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

Hello, I tried taking Capistrano out for a test drive and I can''t even get out of the garage. I am following the instructions here: http://manuals.rubyonrails.com/read/chapter/98#page262 As well as Duncan Davidson''s Deploying Rails with Lighty: Deploying Rails with LightTPDhttp://duncandavidson.com/essay/2005/12/railsonlighty Specifically, when I do: rake remote:exec

I''ve ran into quiet an annoying problem: I have a Capistrano task that is supposed to run a shell script. The script restarts a rails application by first killing all active fcgi processes and then spawning new ones again. The shell script works fine when executed locally on the server but running this in a Capistrano task will simply not work. The task is simple: desc

All, I''m setting up a deployment script with Capistrano at the moment, and am running into some trouble when it attempts to pull the code down from the SVN server when I run the deploy task. The SVN server runs over https, and the problem seems to be when I get asked whether I want to accept or reject the certificate. I hit ''p'' to accept the certificate permanently,

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

Hey y''all: mongrel_cluster provides management tools for running Mongrel behind a reverse-proxy/load balancer.

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

background: One of our developers is just getting started with Capistrano, just getting together a rudimentary deploy.rb, copied from one of our contract developers who is just getting started a bit too. I''m the systems manager and a complete Rails and Ruby newbie (who, by the way, cannot thank Zed Shaw enough for mongrel and Bradley Taylor enough for mongrel_cluster :-)

How does one configure capistrano for moving local file to your remote server? In the docs it says that one cannot use file:// so what''s the configuration step for resolving this issue?

Well I finnally bit the bullet and upgrade to capistrano and have run into several issues that I can''t seem to find a fix for. Switchtower worked perfectly but I can not get cap to work especially with the change to the command to run a deploy. The following code worked fine in switchtower to deploy: switchtower -vvvv -S stage=stage -r config/deploy -a deploy The stage variable

Quick question: I am going to use the file_column plugin to manage uploading thumbnails. By default the images are stored in the public/ dir of the rails project. The problem I see is that when capistrano redeploys a new build and symlinks it in none of the images will be in the new public/ dir... Does anyone have a solution for this? Thanks, Zack -------------- next part -------------- An

Hello fellow railers, I''m new to the whole RoR thing and I have finished installing and setting everything up on my OSX G4 Powerbook. I followed the step by step instructions at Hivelogic, running lighttpd and everything else. I''m having an issue with Capistrano. I''m following the tutorial at Apple: http://developer.apple.com/tools/rubyonrails.html Everything in

I was using lighty+fastcgi before, and it was working pretty well, but I decided to move to Apache+mongrel because I really really like Mongrel. Well now I found out about lighty+pound+mongrel [1] and I think I''m going to give that a shot. I definitely prefer lighty to Apache - it''s pretty ridiculous how much fewer resources it uses. Anyway the only thing I''m going to

I have a project under Subversion, deployed by Capistrano. When it is deployed, obviously I need to deploy "real" copies of database.yml, deploy.rb, and maybe a couple of other files. But if I offer it for public checkout, I obviously do not want these files as part of the checked out code. What''s the best way to handle this? --Al Evans -- Posted via

I am new to RoR, but I have had RoR running with Capistrano on a different box. However I''m installing a fresh copy now and am finding constant regex errors from the standard.rb file while attempting to "show_tasks". As this is a new installation, everything is up-to-date. Here''s the environment: FreeBSD 6.2-RC2 ruby 1.8.5 gem 0.9.0 rake 0.7.1 net-ssh 1.0.10, 1.0.9

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

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

Hi all I didn''t get a response to my first post so I thought I''d try again. is anyone successfully using capistrano to deploy their app from a windows box? I''m trying to deploy a test app to my dreamhost account but all i get is "rake aborted!" with no further information. Can someone please confirm if capistrano even works under windows? many thanks al
