[SDRuby] Capistrano errors

[Scott Olmsted]

This is my first experience with Capistrano. I made some changes to an existing Rails site that already had Subversion and Capistrano in place, checked them into Subversion, and ran 'cap deploy:check' successfully. But 'cap deploy:migrations' produced an error:

 ** [out :: xx.xxx.xxx.xxx] rake aborted!
 ** [out :: xx.xxx.xxx.xxx] No such file or directory -
/home/wwwfine/projects/fgc/releases/20080919185053/config/database.yml

even though a quick check shows that database.yml in that location was successfully created as a symbolic link from the shared location of database.yml earlier in the script. Otherwise, the new release seems to have been set up properly.

So I tried 'cap deploy:stop', figuring that I'd run the migration manually and then restart, but got

  * executing "/home/wwwfine/projects/fgc/current/script/process/reaper -a kill"
    servers: ["xx.xxx.xxx.xxx"]
    [xx.xxx.xxx.xxx] executing command
 ** [out :: xx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Couldn't find any pid file in '/home/wwwfine/projects/fgc/releases/20080919185053/tmp/pids' matching 'dispatch.[0-9]*.pid'

Indeed, that directory is empty, so no processes were killed and the app is still running.

First, can I just kill the ruby/mongrel process myself, run the rake migration, and then use Capistrano to restart?

Second, any ideas about how to fix these problems? Should I just take this to the Capistrano forum?

Below are the files deploy.rb and Capfile.

Thanks.
