sudo "chown -R apache:apache #{latest_release}"- Jamis On Jan 2, 2008, at 1:40 PM, halbertn wrote:
Hello,
I'm at my wits end here...
I'm using capistrano 2.1.
I'm overwriting the finalize_update task in my deploy script to run
sudo so that I can perform some misc linux calls. Here's a sample
call:
task :finalize_update, :except => { :no_release => true } do
# chown the new directory to apache:apache
run "sudo -p 'sudo password:' chown -R apache:apache
#{latest_release}"
end
I do see the 'sudo password:' prompt, however anything I type appears
on the terminal and hitting enter doesn't send my password over.
Prior to the sudo call, when I'm prompted for a password, I don't see
my character inputs on the screen, typical of entering passwords in
linux terminal,...so it appears that the sudo password prompt is
broken. Is there a setting that I have not configured properly?
I've been searching google, and part of the new features for
capistraion 2.1 is that it recognizes the '-p' option on sudo. As
quoted:
Use sudo -p switch to set sudo password prompt to something
predictable.
I don't understand this statement. What password prompt is "something
predictable"?
Thanks for any help!
