Thanks for the follow-up Marnen. Yeah I like to use parens and quotes for emphasis - I'd much rather use quotes - but I don't see anything about that here. Anyhoo, that's another issue altogether.
So, here's my logic and understanding of this subject and yes, it's not very large.. heh. >From what I understand, Capistrano is the tool that is used to deploy the application to your server. It has nothing to do with apache/passenger etc. correct? Secondly, passenger is a front-end piece and apache is the back-end piece of the server setup correct? If I didn't want to use passenger, I could use mongrel in it's place? Not saying I would do this but just clarifying for understanding.. In order of priority configurations: Apache first Passenger Second .. that handles the server end? I believe where I'm getting confused is that I'm looking at all of it at once and it's making my head hurt a bit. Is there documentation on setting up apache with rails? Prepping? Link please. Is there documentation on setting up passenger with apache? Prepping? Link please. How does capistrano tie in with git and my server? For instance, I see the following as an example configuration: set :application, "ncaastatpages" # GITHUB BELOW # Set Putty True to instantiate a passphrase call default_run_options[:pty] = true # Set the git repository set :repository, "[email protected]:myuser/ncaastatpages.git" # Specify which subversion or repository SCM to use set :scm, :git # Set your GIT password set :scm_passphrase, "mypassword" # Set your GIT user (this might need to be the same all the way around) set :user, "myuser" # If you're using your own private keys for git # ssh_options[:forward_agent] = true # Set the branch type set :branch, "master" # Shallow cloning will do a clone each time, but will only get the first tree, not all the parents trees, too. # set :git_shallow_clone, 1 # If you're using git's submodule support for edge rails or merb, set this guy to make sure the submodules "git" checked out. set :git_enable_submodules, 1 # Set remote cache you want to only force new changes only, fetching changed data set :deploy_via, :remote_cache # Set the role for your web server role :web, "ncaastatpages.com" I only see one repository (for my current git repo), but how does it know where to send it to? I.e. where in capistrano do you tell it where to deploy to? I don't see anywhere in here where I am setting my server and the port. I use a different SSH port so I need to set that somewhere too. I've read the documentation but it doesn't appear to talk about this. I'm not using Ruby EE by the way - just a heads up. I commented everything myself above to show you what I believe is happening. If I'm incorrect, please let me know. Let's bring this topic closer to capistrano usage first and I'll work with one piece and iron out the others after I get capistrano logic down. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
