After I uninstalled SwitchTower and installed Capistrano, I tried run  
rake  
–tasks and got the error message below:  
rake aborted!  
undefined method `namespace’ for #Object:0x28a9258  
./rakefile:10

I’ve run “cap -A .” on my Rails application before running rake --tasks.  
The  
same thing happens when I overwrite my copy of deploy.rb.

Hmm, what could be going wrong here?

What version of Rake do you? I think you need to be running the new  
version of rake.

Thanks Harvey, installing the latest version of rake did the trick!
