[Capistrano] Re: What does "no passwd entry for app" mean?

[Jamis Buck]

Great to hear, Lori. Note that disable/enable_web requires that you are using Apache, and that you have your .htaccess set up to detect the existence of system/maintenance.html, and if it exists, to display it (using mod_rewrite magic).

Thanks, Jamis. I was just rooting around in the capistrano code, and I discovered that line of code. I changed the value of :spinner_user to the user I wanted, and it started to work.

Very odd, I'm not sure how that code snuck in there. What you need to
do is do, at the top of your deploy.rb:

   set :spinner_user, nil

For some reason, :spinner_user is defaulting to :app (which is what
we use at 37signals).

I'm about 90% there, now, with my capistrano tasks. I still don't have disable_web/enable_web working, but the deploy stuff all works, which will make my life a lot easier now. > * executing "sudo -u app /usr/local/rails/myapp/current/script/ spin" To unsubscribe from this group, send email to capistrano- [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/ group/capistrano
