Seems like it went well. The site is there. And when I do an update and push to it with git and run cap deploy again I can see my edits in a file on the server but not on the webpage.

For example

if I go into the folder current and run "grep -rn 'testingcapdeploy1' *"

I get 

app/views/projects/show.html.erb:5:<!--testingcapdeploy1-->

but if I visit the page that change is not seen in the actual page code.

It is an apache passenger setup and otherwise works okay though soon I will switch to nginx.

my cap deploy is below

#$:.unshift(File.expand_path('./lib', ENV['rvm_path'])) # Add RVM's lib directory to the 

require 'rvm/capistrano'  # Add RVM integration

require 'bundler/capistrano'  # Add Bundler integration

ssh_options[:forward_agent] = true

set :deploy_via, :remote_cache

#set :use_sudo, false

load 'deploy/assets'

set :application, "alsstuff2"

set :user, "railsadmin"

set :deploy_to, "/var/www/#{application}"

set :repository, "file:///home/deploy/git/alsBlogRails.git/"

set :local_repository, "file://."

set :scm, :git

set :branch, "master"

default_run_options[:pty] = true

# set :scm, :git # You can set :scm explicitly or Capistrano will make an intelligent guess based on known version control directory names

# Or: `accurev`, `bzr`, `cvs`, `darcs`, `git`, `mercurial`, `perforce`, `subversion` or `none`

role :web, "#####"                          # Your HTTP server, Apache/etc

role :app, "#####"                          # This may be the same as your `Web` server

role :db,  "#####", :primary => true # This is where Rails migrations will run

#role :db,  "your slave db-server here"

# if you want to clean up old releases on each deploy uncomment this:

# if you're still using the script/reaper helper you will need

# these http://github.com/rails/irs_process_scripts

# If you are using Passenger mod_rails uncomment this:

# namespace :deploy do

#   task :start do ; end

#   task :stop do ; end

#   task :restart, :roles => :app, :except => { :no_release => true } do

#     run "#{try_sudo} touch #{File.join(current_path,'tmp','restart.txt')}"

#   end

# end

You need to uncomment the lines at the end starting with "namespace :deploy do".  It touches the file restart.txt in the tmp folder (changing the modified date/time stamp).  Passenger checks the date/time stamp on that file to see if any changes have been made.
