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, 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

We''re moving some "internal use" apps to a spare internal machine - instead of a public, shared host. I''m not sure if it''s relevant, but the new machine is running OS 10.3. I''m having a strange problem using Capistrano. It happens on both our development machines, and only when deploying to this server. I run ''cap deploy'' and get:

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

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

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

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

hi, im currently working on a laptop and would like to rake the stuff onto a production server aka my old pc running ubuntu. is capistrano what i should be reading about to do this? thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

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

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, Just trying to get Capistrano working to Dreamhost. I''m hitting a permissions issue on the reaper file at the moment. Has anyone a copy of the capistrano DEPLOY.RB file they could post or send me a copy of please? Thanks Greg -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

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,

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 :-)

I''ve been meaning to look into using Switchtower/Capistrano for some time now, and after briefly taking a look, it seems geared towards deploying ''an application'' perhaps to multiple machines and keeping it in check in all cases. I was wanting to use it in some legacy situations where the case is more that I deploy an instance of an application multiple times, sometimes

I have vpn server (ubuntu10 + .rvm + ror + nginx + passenger + unicorn). Questions: 1. How to deploy in first time with capistrano through git, if I don''t have project on the server (just empty project folder)? 2. Should I have project on my local machine to deploy on the server machine thought git? And if you have working config/deploy.rb. Please, post it here. Thanks for help. --

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?

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:

Hi I''m trying to deploy an app from WinXP to a Linux host(Site5), and wondering if anyone knows the answer to this? I''ve got SwitchTower/Capistrano installed - seems to be fine. But when I try to "rake remote_exec ''remote_exec''" rake dies on me with a "Don''t know how to build task ''remote_exec''" message The

I got Capistrano working with one of my Rails projects, but I intend to use identical models in a second project. I originally was using a symlink to point to the other models, but I want to be able to use the same ''rake deploy'' command for the two apps individually so I don''t have to deploy both together all the time. Any ideas? -John -- John Smilanick

After I uninstalled SwitchTower and installed Capistrano, I tried run rake --tasks and got the error message below: rake aborted! undefined method `namespace'' for #<Object:0x28a9258> ./rakefile:10 I''ve run "cap -A ." on my Rails application before running rake --tasks. The same thing happens when I overwrite my copy of deploy.rb. Hmm, what could be going wrong
