Capistrano, ftp user and svn user are different

Rails

What do you do when the ftp login username is different then the svn
username?

Every time I try to deploy it gets stuck right here:

 [kopanas.com] executing command

** [out :: kopanas.com] Authentication realm: http://kopanas.com:80
kopanas.com
** [out :: kopanas.com] Password for ‘jkopanas’:
** [out :: kopanas.com] subversion is asking for a password
** [out :: kopanas.com] Authentication realm: http://kopanas.com:80
kopanas.com
** [out :: kopanas.com] Username:

And then it never moves. I am assuming the problem is with username
and password. Anyone have any insight?

John,

I assume you mean ssh, not ftp? Capistrano does not work with ftp.

Regarding svn, you can set the svn user name and password explicitly,
either in your recipe file:

set :svn_username, “rapunzel”
set :svn_password, “l3tdoony3rh4r”

Or via the cap command-line:

cap -s svn_username=rapunzel -s svn_password=l3tdoony3rh4r …

If you’d rather configure things so that you get prompted for the
password the first time it is needed, rather than hard-coding it in
your recipe file, you can do:

set(:svn_password) { Capistrano::CLI.password_prompt }

Hope that helps,

Jamis

That’s right. Thanks Jamis.
