I don't know why you have this problem.
Capistrano when do a deploy, updates the code (or copy the code),
generate symlinks(get the new release and link it as current), then do a
restart [1]. Nothing more.
I want to said with this, if you have in your repository:
your_killer_rails_app/
app/
config/
db/
doc/
lib/
public/
script/
test/
tmp/
vendor/
*
Capistrano only gets these files and put them in current.
On the other hand, shared/dynamic files (for example: files uploaded by
users) you can do something like it:
after "deploy:symlink", "symlink_database"
desc "Symlink database.yml"
task :symlink_database, :roles => :app do
run "rm -f #{release_path}/config/database.yml"
run "ln -nfs #{shared_path}/config/database.yml
#{current_path}/config/database.yml"
end
If you have a lot of files you can do something more sophisticated than
create every symlink task by hand, for example: creates an array of
files to be symlinked and went all the array generating these tasks.

Anyone got any ideas on this?
I'm following the guide on the capistrano site:
http://www.capify.org/index.php/From_The_Beginning
But I am now using passenger instead of the spin script.
So my deploy.rb is this http://pastie.org/842054 with the bottom part
uncommented.
But it is still not copying the images/stylesheets/javascripts to
where it wants them.
Giving the same output: http://pastie.org/839203
If I do need a symlink to achieve this can someone suggest one?

Colin

Yes, the files are in my repository.
And they get copied to the server to (pathTo/rails/current/
MyApp/public/stylesheets).
I was just following the beginners guide so I figured it was going to
put everything where it needed to be.
Can you suggest how I would get them where capistrano wants them?
Thanks,
Colin

Capistrano don't move/copy nothing by default, it generates symlinks
between previous/latest release and current. When you want "move" files
between releases you should write a task that make symlinks.
Then I have a question, are these files in your repository?

Please, could you paste your deploy.rb in some place(gist,pastie,...)?

Yes.
The stylesheets etc. are being copied over to pathTo/rails/current/
MyApp/public/stylesheets (which is where they are in my development
environment) but they are not being placed in pathTo/rails/current/
public/ (which I assume is where capistrano wants them).
The only thing in the capistrano public folder is an empty system
folder as far as I can see.
So doing the test suggested in the guide of browsing to my sites url
and appending /javascripts/prototype.js fails.
Now it's possible that the site might work fine where they are but I
haven't been able to start up my app yet.

Did you run cap deploy:setup first?

Hi,
I'm using ruby version 1.8.6 and cap version 2.5.14.
I'm developing on windows vista and I'm using subversion.
I am following the deployment guide here:
http://www.capify.org/index.php/From_The_Beginning
When I run cap deploy:update it all runs successfully except for this
bit:http://pastie.org/839203
Everything works in the guide until:
Open up a web browser and browse to your application s URL, adding /
javascripts/prototype.js to the end.
I have googled around and found similar issues but no solutions.
Any ideas?

Colin
