[Capistrano] Re: Default Capistrano/Rails roles

[Jamis Buck]

Yup, you're right on all three counts. :app is for where the mongrel or fastcgi listeners will be running. :web is where your webserver is. :db is where your migrations will be run from. Specifically, :db with :primary => true -- you should only run your migrations from a single server, or things will get nasty.

How are each of the Rails deploy roles used? (:app, :web, and :db)

I imagine :app is where the application code is pushed to, and where Rails is actually run. Is :db where the migrations are run from? (Or are they run from everywhere in :app? I'd assume they would work from there...) Does :web do anything out of the box? (Could put nginx on a separate machine from the actual app servers. In this case, is :web the nginx machine?)
