Hi. I tried to deploy new Rails app code to a production server the other day and took down the live site in production. I'd like to avoid this in the future. Something happened in the process that affected the live site. The error log showed that fastthread was not found. I had to go into the fastthread gem and run setup.rb. Then it told me that Rails was not installed so I had to do a gem install Rails. Then there were other gems that were needed by the application and not found so I had to reinstall those too.
I have my own staging server that this all worked on, but the staging server is able to serve multiple sites so it is not an exact replicate of the client's production box. The Apache setup is such that only one site can be served from this machine - the document root in Apache is /project/public. I've got a couple of questions. 1- Any idea why gems would need to be reinstalled? 2- Can I deploy Capistrano without restarting Passenger to put the code onto the production server and then once it's all there, change the document root in Apache then do a deploy with the Passenger restart?
