Talk:Capistrano

From DreamHost

Jump to: navigation, search

I've just started using Capistrano and it seems there's a lot different in v2.0 compared to before so most of the tutorials on the web don't work. This page seems to be for previous versions, maybe it would be good to make it clear? --Ben uaq 08:20, 31 July 2007 (PDT)

public/dispatch.fcgi has to be #!/usr/bin/ruby1.8

the public/dispatch.fcgi that is generated by dreamhost includes the following shebang line: #!/usr/bin/ruby1.8

I'm not sure if the other public/dispatch.* files need to be updated at all to work

Updating this article.

Is anyone working on updating this to Capistrano 2.0?

I will if not -- just finally got everything up and running, and DreamHost is definitely in need of a good guide for this.


I just updated most everything to Cap 2; Could someone please go through and review my changes? Also, its probably now worthwhile to mention some useful Dreamhost tasks (recipes anyone?) for the Capfile and, in fact, put up a sample Capfile with their custom tasks, since this is now the recommended way to use Capistrano (ie, Tasks in the Capfile, configuration in config/deploy.rb) --Jrguitar21 06:12, 26 April 2008 (PDT)

Please include relevant version info on ALL entries of this type!

It seems like such an obvious and easy thing to do. Without this information there is absolutely no way to tell if this is based on current version or not (without possibly finding an answer by digging through the document history.)

As far as I am concerned this is worthless info without version info. It might help me with the task, or it might waste hours of my time and possibly even cause some serious harm. Without at least some rudimentary version information, it could go either way.

I'll probably wing it and see what happens, but I am disappointed that the value of this great piece of work is undermined by a lack of version info.
