If you are using cap more or less out of the box with a default deploy script,
you problem is likely one of release management.
By default, cap sets up a directory structure of:
/app
/shared
/releases
/current (symlink to a folder in /releases)
When you do a deployment, a new folder is setup in /releases and the /current
symlink is repointed. The problem I think your facing is that nginx is pointing
at the directory for release n, while the image you uploaded in now in the
release n-1 directory. The general solution is to create a directory in the
/shared folder that stores assets *not* found in version control that you want
to share between releases. Symlink that into your current directory so that
uploads end up in shared and are always available between releases.
Lots of different ways to setup that symlink, but it's generally done by your
deploy.rb file in a manner similar to how the database.yml file is linked.
