Capistrano 2.4.0 incompatible with EC2 on Rails 0.9.8.1

[Paul Dowman]

Capistrano 2.4.0 was released last week, unfortunately it breaks a couple of things in the EC2 on Rails 0.9.8.1 Capistrano tasks. It will be fixed in the next release.

A temporary workaround is to use Capistrano 2.3.0:

sudo gem uninstall capistrano -v 2.4.0 sudo gem install capistrano -v 2.3.0

To check which version you're currently using:

gem list capistrano

Thanks to those who reported this!
