I don't think it matters too much where you put it. Just add it
somewhere that makes sense.
Then to have it run automatically after deploy you just add an after
call somewhere in the body of your recipe file. So if you were to name
it :restart_services and put it in the :remote namespace, you could do

Hi,

I've got the following block in my capfile:

namespace :remote do

desc <<-DESC
Create directory required by copy_remote_dir.

task :create_copy_remote_dir, :roles => :web do
print " creating #{copy_remote_dir}.\n"
run "mkdir -p #{copy_remote_dir}"
end

end

Re: [capistrano] installing mongrel

2009-11-18T09:10:19Z

This message about "command not found" is in local or remote(when you
executes capistrano)?
Mongrel should be installed in the server.

Another thing the command is mongrel_rails and you're trying to use
mongrel.
If don't works check where's the command (which mongrel_rails) and add
the path to PATH or include it in run command.

Hi Guys,
I've upgraded to the GitHub version of Webistrano + probably the
NetSSH required upgrade, and this seemed to solve the problem.

Thanks a bunch

Re: [capistrano] Re: Webistrano stuck on update_code only when trying to deploy to multiple hosts

Yes, please try Webistrano from master, it includes the Net::SSH fix
that will hopefully fix your problem.

Damn, Burg - update your Capistrano 2.5.10 released last week; (mostly this
will upgrade your Net::SSH client, there was a bug with threading that they
fixed at 2.0.14, but AFAIK it hasn't manifested with so few hosts before.

yep... each server runs successfully.

I just looked at the 'TOP' of the webistrano server and found this -

Sure, but does that run, successfully - individually on both servers,
invidually? Might I ask the reason for a deploy to /usr/local

Here's an example of a succesful one server deployment:
** loading stage recipe 'finalize_update'
** loading stage recipe 'before_symlink'
** loading stage recipe 'prod_before_deploy'
** loading stage recipe 'symlink'
* executing `deploy'
* executing `deploy:update'
triggering before callbacks for `deploy:update'

Thanks for the info, nothing suspicious there apart from deploying to
/usr/local which is odd.

But according to your last email you can deploy these hosts individually?

hosts, it's stuck indefinitely"

It is pretty clear to me that Webistrano / Capistrano is stuck in the
'git fetch' stage probably because of some permissions issues. However
it is not outputing it and I cannot seem to find any proper debug
method for what's going on behind the NetSSH
