[capistrano] Re: SUDO Problem
I just bit by the same problem connecting to Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala). I think this is going to affect all Capistrano users who use sudo in recipes. Capistrano supports sudo with passwords and ubuntu has always granted a pty when you ssh to it. Any idea what may have changed in last weeks release of Ubuntu? - Mike On Oct 31, 10:09 am, Lee Hambley lee.hamb...@gmail.com wrote: You do not have a tty (you are therefore using a pty) -- and you do not have passwordless sudo access configured.
