cap deploy -> does not deply my app, only a few dirs

[Adam PAPAI]

I've got a strange issue.

My deploy.rb is shown below:

set :application, "serice"
set :domain, "mytld"
set :user, "myusername"
set :port, 22
set :repository, "/usr/home/#{user}/#{application}"
set :scm, :none
set :runner, user
set :use_sudo, false
set :deploy_via, :copy
set :deploy_to, "/usr/local/www/#{user}/#{application}"
set :group_writable, false
role :app, domain
role :web, domain
role :db, domain, :primary => true

cap deploy:check it says:

You appear to have all necessary dependencies installed

But with the command cap deploy, everything seems to be okay, but my
"source" is not deployed. Almost everything is missing, but the link
current is set up correctly, the releases/<timestamp> directory
exists, the basic directories exist as well (public, log, tmp) but
everything else is missing.

I checked the temporary created /tmp/<timestamp>.tar.gz and it
contains ALL of my code. It seems after the gunzip && tar xvf && rm
<timestamp>.tar my source code disappears from the extracted stuff..

What am I doing wrong?

set :scm, :none

^ Something it stopping the rsync command finding any of your code - deploying without source control is a really bad idea.

The problem was obvious:

I've tried to deploy my app on the same machine via ssh. So it packed the stuff to /tmp then it started to scp it to the same /tmp, so the tarball was corrupt. :)

But thanks anyway

Adam,

I really recommend grabbing Sun's (free) Virtualbox, and you can have a machine ready to test deploys in about 20 minutes, and at least this way it simulates what's really going on, I guess about 40% of all issues that come up with Cap are people trying to deploy to their own machine, and/or self-host their scm.

Glad you got it sorted.

Well i was running it under a FreeBSD jail, and I forgot to separate the development environment to a different jail :)

Now i separated them and everything works fine.
