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

Hi All, I've a question on upgrading Centos with the least downtime... I've a centos 4.6 machine, hosting my local Centos respository. I'd like to upgrade the OS to 5.1 I've practised in a VMware machine upgrading it by booting from a CD, but I wondered if YUM could do it, whilst keeping the rest of the machine "alive". Am I better to shutdown and

My needs are far more modest than Capistrano''s capabilities. Also, when working in a shared hosting environment, the Capistrano model can be outside the capabilities allowed by the Web host. I simply need to push selected directories (on a changed-file basis) out to a server. I have about 80% of the code written to do this (I''m considering YAC for the name, with a nod to

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

SwitchTower is a utility that can execute commands in parallel on multiple servers. It allows you to define tasks, which can include commands that are executed on the servers.

I am using the shovel deploy.rb from http://nubyonrails.com/pages/shovel I have SwitchTower-ized my app, copied the shovel deploy.rb file and put my settings in it. But when I run "rake remote_exec ACTION=setup_lighty" from the local app root it has no effect. It should prompt for a password for at least throw an error? I just get returned to the DOS prompt. If I do "rake

Just loaded up Switchtower 1.0 today, via gems. I''m on OS X (10.4.5), with ruby and friends installed via darwinports in opt/local. After installing ST, I switchtowerized my app, set up the deploy recipe, then ran: rake remote_exec ACTION=setup When I do, i get this error: rake aborted! uninitialized constant SwitchTower Obviously, this happens with any of the tasks in ST (like

Hi I have a problem here. I am developing an application which has a local development environment (on my harddisk), a second one for my customer (for testing new features) and a production environment which runs actual application online. How can I setup SwitchTower to have a possibility to deploy just for a particular server? Thanks, Peter

Hi, I''m trying retrieve some information from the real world from within puppet. I''d initially hoped that I could do this: $xen_version = exec { "apt-cache search xen-hypervisor | head -n 1 | cut -d- -f3-5": path => "/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin", cwd => "/tmp", require => [

I''ve been deploying local applications into production (both linux boxes) with Switchtower, and I''ve had no problems, until now. I just tried doing a "rake deploy", and I get this error: ============ [update_code] exception while rolling back: NameError, uninitialized constant OSSL rake aborted! no such file to load -- openssl ============ Now, on both the production

Does anyone know a good way to hook into the AR to_xml() method to allow for adjusting datetimes to a user''s timezone? Basically I want a user to be able dump all their data before cancelling an account.

Hi I'm thinking about setting up a local / LAN respository for my CentOS, and probably other (Fedora Core) disto's, but have never done it before, so here's some questions: If I setup a repository, can it hold different distro's / architectures & versions? Say for example, CentOS 4 (i386 & x64), CentOS 5.0 & 5.1 (i386 & x64) - will each one have it's own

I''m having a little bit of difficulty deploying my app. I''ve run the setup and it works with Cap, but when I try to deploy it hangs at "querying latest revision". I can access my svn locally (I''m on a windows xp sp2 machine) using SubClipse plugin, but not through the command line though (yes, svn client is installed). I''m pretty sure that
