I have several ruby newbie problems with my deployment
1) First issue.. user rights and group permissions with ruby
enterprise using PLESK
To deploy i did create a git bare repo on my server inside /var/git/
myapp.git
git remote add deployserver ssh://myserver.com/var/git/myapp.git
For deploy i do: git push deployserver master which uploads my local
files to the git repo on myserver.com/var/git/myapp.git
Then in a SSH session on the myserver.com I goto /myapps/
sitename.com/ and then git pull (clone on 1st time ) ssh://myserver.com/var/git/myapp.git
This actually copies the app from my servers repo to the correct
servers directory where i host these files with ruby enterprise
I login as user myuser and myusergroup those are something like
git:usergroup and needs to be nameofthedomaintheapprunson:psaserv
( this is the username plesk runs under for that domain , psaserv is
the usergroup for the plesk server where apache , etc runs under ) How
can i optimalize this, it seems all not very logic. I know I can use
capify but have had a hell of a time with it, and defaulted to the
simple git push pull
2) I cannot do rake:db:create even my mysql socket is set correctly
but it wont allow me to create any database, to omit this i created
the database in mysql from command line, normally you create database
form inside the plesk config panel, but then i could not do
rake:db:create:all and that seems way more efficient to me. Plesk has
no root user for Mysql but "admin" with the same password as you login
to your plesk config panel which is normally on the server at
https://domain.com:8443. So THAT is set in my database.yml
Correction on above, I login as git user for my ssh Forgot to add that
sorry about that.
It all works so if syntax above is not correct its just typo.
I think i Need Cap to do these more advanched things like changing
user permissions.
Problem is I could not get it up and running so if anyone has a decent
recent complete guide on how to deploy with +git +cap +ruby/enterprise
*using not git but my own repo*
I would love to read that, I got so confused with all different and
sometimes incomplete docs, ways to do it , incomplete examples on
several blogs , that I I used git push and pull for now
I use git with my own repo's, along with Capistrano and passenger.
I simply have a special 'vhost.conf' for plesk (you can do this
in .htaccess but I don't like them) and I then create the 'apps'
directory on the server manually with the correct permissions and then
fire off capistrano to do the rest.
I have special permissions in my recipe for things like uploaded
images that are generated on the server. These are all stored in the
'shared' directory so that they remain in tact when you re deploy.
If this sounds like what you want, let me know and I'll post the
recipe and the vhost.conf file.

But you are using Git. You're not using GitHub, but that won't make
much difference in your deploy script. Any Cap guide should do -- yes,
including the one from GitHub -- just put the appropriate server name
in.

Get Cap set up. Now. You're making yourself far more trouble by trying
to work without it.
