I’m trying to use SwitchTower to deploy from XP to Dreamhost. Based on
http://nubyonrails.com/pages/shovel_dreamhost, my deploy.rb looks
like:
set :user, ‘dankohn’
set :application, “flydash.com”
set :repository, “http://svn.flydash.com/flydash/flydash”
#set :repository, “svn+ssh://home/#{user}/svn/flydash”
#set :repository, “file:///home/#{user}/svn/flydash”
set :checkout, “export”
role :app, application
role :db, application, :primary => true
set :deploy_to, “/home/#{user}/#{application}”
Whatever, I use for the repository, I consistently get the error:
C:\Dan\dev\radrails\flydash>rake --trace deploy

By contrast, “rake remote_exec ACTION=setup” works perfectly and after
prompting
for the password, successfully creates the directories on the server.
Why is SwitchTower looking for rake.bat? What do I have misconfigured?
Thanks
in advance for your help.
