Hi there,

I’m currently trying to get comfortable with automated application
deployment using Vlad. I’m sure I’m missing something absolutely
obvious, but it seems I can’t get Vlad to run a custom command on the
remote server. Here’s a simple task from my config/deploy.rb:

===============================================
namespace :vlad do
task :foo do
run “echo test”
end
end

I’m however unable to run this:

===============================================
$ bundle exec rake vlad:foo --trace
** Invoke vlad:foo (first_time)
** Execute vlad:foo
rake aborted!

I’m using Vlad 2.2.4 with vlad-git 2.2.0. Ruby version is ruby 1.9.3p0
(2011-10-30 revision 33570) [x86_64-linux].

Other Vlad commands, namely vlad:update and vlad:migrate, work just
fine, so I’m sure I’m missing something. Could somebody shed some
light on this?

Valete,
Marvin

run is for remote execution but you’re using a regular task. You want
remote_task.

Please file an issue next time. I don’t always see things in here.

remote_task works, thank you! :smiley:

And yes, I promise to file an issue next time when I’m trying to
conquer “the heartless spike of Vlad” :wink:

Great tool! Keep up the good work!

Marvin
