I’m hoping someone might have some insight into this, because I don’t  
quite know how to figure this one out. I’m running the command with  
Capistrano’s deploy:migrate to my (mt) Media Temple (gs) Grid Server,  
but I get the same error (from “rake aborted!” and on below) when I  
run “rake db:migrate” directly on the server in the application’s root  
directory.

- executing `deploy:migrate’
- executing “ls -x /home/0000/containers/rails/babylon/releases”  
servers: [“[domain.com](http://domain.com)”]

I can provide a full trace if necessary.
