Hi there.
I’ve been trying to deploy a rails app to one of my web servers with
little success. I’ve only been following the instructions from Agile Web
Development.
Everything seemed to go well until I got to
# rake remote:cold_deployWhere I got the following response. (I’ve added --trace if it helps)
1. # rake remote:cold_deploy --trace
2. (in /home/ben/web/carrie)
3. ** Invoke remote:cold_deploy (first_time)
4. ** Execute remote:cold_deploy
5. Capistrano/Rake integration is deprecated.
6. Please invoke the 'cap' command directly: `cap cold_deploy'

I read on this forum somewhere that you’re meant to use cap cold_deploy.
But this gave a similar error:

I’m guessing there is a step that I haven’t done. Perhaps a simple rake
command telling rails that we’re about to go live? Or maybe I haven’t
set up the production database correctly? (I have made the production
database on both my local and remote system with the same details. But
the databases themselves have no tables i.e. no scheme_info)
I’m developing and deploying on the latest Gentoo Linux. The server is
running the lastest Apache I’ve gone down the mongrel and proxy route,
seeing as that’s the route of the book.
