Hi everyone, I have deployed a rails tumblelog site via capistrano, but have run into a problem. What I am wanting to do is this: In my deployment script create symlinks from the public directory so that the images directory points to a shared images directory. Reason being is I am adding an image upload to the site (not file_column) and need to easily add the uploaded images and thumbs into

Possibly protobuf or capn proto would be much more clean alternatives to json. I was working with interpreting instruction semantics a while back, and you shouldn't have to write a parser to get the data structure back into coherent form, you can get what you want automatically and have the structure isolated into a common schema.

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

I have a few projects with large directories (say, user-uploaded files) that make using Capistrano a bit awkward. However, I suspect that I may have reached the "write a custom task" level. (I suppose I''m just thinking out loud, here...) It seems as though I''d want this directories symlinked in /shared... Maybe there''s a way to extend the

Considering engineering my own code-generator. If I do go ahead, will open-source the end result. Needs to read [parse] one language, and output JSON (conformant to a specific JSON-schema). Then needs to read JSON, and reproduce the code in that language, and [possibly] merge the generated code with existing code. Languages I'm looking to support are all rather popular (Python, Go, Rust,

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

Hi, This is a recurring issue for me - the index directory on my production server and everything below it occasionally disappears and isn''t reconstructed. I tried manually creating the entire index path manually before starting the server, but it still happened while the server is running. I don''t know what''s causing the index to disappear and I''m also not

Hello, Just started to use Capistrano for deployment and everything works beautifully and as advertised. Thanks Jamis for this great piece of software. However, in my case, the deploy task takes quite some time since my SVN repository resides on a different continent than my app/db server and I''ve frozen all the rails code in the vendor dir and checked in. All in all my app sums up to

Hey Win32 folks, I messed up the win32 gem for my last Pre-Release announce. Please grab it again with: gem install mongrel --source=http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ And make sure your apps work with it. Nothing else has changed, but there will be another release for win32 tomorrow. -- Zed A. Shaw http://www.zedshaw.com/ http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/ http://www.railsmachine.com/

I don''t mean to litter the mailing list with junk, but I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who''s been working on rspec for this release. I particularly like your attention to natural language and thorough documentation/examples. I''m not at the point yet where I can contribute much to the code side of things, but if there were a donate button I would use it. Jeff

I''ve just been playing with ''render_partial'' and its great. Reusable, parametised, html components! I''m playing with navigation components, and my ''left nav bar'' is now parametised and driven by the action, yet shared over many actions, and isolated in its own "_left_menu.rhtml" So easy to use, awesome stuff.

Dear ZFS and OpenSolaris people : I recently upgraded a large NFS server upwards from Solaris 8. This is a production manufacturing facility with football field sized factory floors and 25 tonne steel products. Many on-site engineers on AIX and CATIA as well as Solaris users and Windows and everything you can shake a stick at. Everything in this place must rest in central storage that is

I just realized that every app I lacked in Mac OS X, now runs effortlessly without any significant bugs or related issues. So I just want to spend a moment and thank you for going through the arduous and meticulous effort of making Wine what it is today. You're heroes, all of you! :D Thank you!

Hey all, I just wanted to express my thanks for the help and advice that I got off of the list. We have successfully replaced our aging NT4 server with a Sun E250/Solaris 8/Samba 2.2.4/Sunray system, acting as a PDC for our Win98/2k/XP clients (BTW: didn't need to use the XP registry hack at all) and with a Win2k server hanging off of it for application and remote desktop services for the

I love Icecast, as soon as I seen there was a windows version I dropped shoutcast. I'm part of a large group of people who broadcast police scanners from all over North America and it's mostly done using the winamp/shoutcast combo. I've told everyone I know (some big yahoo groups) about icecast and they all love it because there is no huge delay like there is with shoutcast. I use

Xen itself executes in ring0 and the "guest" operating systems execute in ring1.

Hi, >From idea to launch in less than 48 hours (those 48 hours including the new year party ;) , rails once again showed its effectiveness. Last friday I read the news about a guy who sold a million pixels for 1$ each on his homepage. After slamming my head during half an hour for not having thought of it [1], I thought I''d better spend some time on a rails project, and more as a

Hi, I am using Capistrano to do a deploy to servers with different roles. I want call after_deploy in the following manner. task :after_deploy, :roles => [:rolea] do run "task a" end task :after_deploy, :roles => [:roleb] do run "task b" end The problem seems that the second after_deploy clobbers the first even though they are meant for different
