This is my first time trying to set up capistrano to deploy a rails application. I am deploying from my local machine to my remote server that has the repo, web,
app, and mysql servers all on the same machine. I am following this walk through: http://www.capify.org/index.php/From_The_Beginning
I get to the command
cap deploy:start
Then I get this error:
*** [err :: example.com] sudo: unknown user:
app
command finished
failed: "sh -c 'cd /var/www/example/current && sudo -p '\\''sudo password: '\\'' -u
app nohup script/spin'" on example.com
Am I supposed to add an '
app' user, or is there a way of changing what user the command runs as?
This is my deploy.rb:
set :application, "example"
set :repository, "
[email protected]:example.git"
set :user, "trobrock"
set :branch, 'master'
set :deploy_to, "/var/www/example"
set :scm, :git
# Or: `accurev`, `bzr`, `cvs`, `darcs`, `git`, `mercurial`, `perforce`, `subversion` or `none`
role :web, "example.com" # Your HTTP server, Apache/etc
role :app, "example.com" # This may be the same as your `Web` server
role :db, "example.com", :primary => true # This is where Rails migrations will run
And obviously everywhere it says example.com is my servers hostname and every it just says example is the
app name.
