similar to: Capistrano, multiple instances of an application

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

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

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

Is there a way, within capistrano, to deploy not the whole trunk but just stuff tagged a certain way? What I''m trying to accomplish is to let various developers work on different parts of a project, and deploy independantly. Thanks for any help or suggestions. Jim

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

Hi I need a share with read-only access for some developers (to read logfiles). the logfiles are owned by the application user and group and have 700 permissions. I have set up the share like this: path = /applicationx/logs read only = Yes valid users = "MYDOMAIN+DEVELOPER1" force user = applicationx It does work very well, but somehow it does not look

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

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/.

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

Hi, My name is Paul Kristoff and I am rather new to rails. I am trying to use Capistrano for the first time and am rather confused. My confusion boils down to the :repository variable in the deploy.rb file. Is this supposed to point to where your code is currently being stored? Here is what leads to that question, I am working with an ISP that supports rails. I originally had the

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

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

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,

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?

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

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:

I installed capistrano and have tried several things. Can''t seem to get it working. This is what i am getting. C:\ruby\radrails\modernfossil>cap deploy * executing `deploy'' * executing `deploy:update'' ** transaction: start * executing `deploy:update_code'' svn: Can''t create tunnel: The system cannot find the file specified. ***

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

I''m wondering if anyone has built a Capistrano task that will deploy mongrel either standalone or along with a rails app. I''ve been looking at possibilities for doing this but still new to using both having switched from using FCGI+Lighty and deploying by hand. Thanks, Curtis
