I just got the fire to clean up how our app is deployed and upgrading mongrel.
Currently, our app is being deployed in a user's home directory. This has caused some problems regards to user/group permissions... We decided we were going to move everything to /var/www/app which led me to the whole general layout of our deployment and some questions. ENV Ruby 1.8.5p12 Rails 1.2.3 Mongrel 1.0.1 Mongrel_Cluster 1.0.2 Apache 2.x Cap 1.x monit-4.8.1 I've read that there are some issues with Cap2.0 and Mongrel Cluster, Is this true? I was thinking to upgrade Cap as well. What, if/any other gems should I be concerned about general compatibility? I am wondering if standard practice is to run mongrel as mongrel:mongrel? Who should typically have ownership of the files in my app directory if I do so? I am concerned about media uploads (images etc..). Does it matter if mongrel is running as mongrel and my app is owned by another user? Sorta newb questions I know, but I want to make sure that I have this upgrade clean and correct. I guess I am confused about how 'mongrel' handles permissions.
