Question

I’m attempting to deploy my symfony2 app to my ec2 instance. I have my deploy.rb file configured and I’m able to initialize the server directory using cap deploy:setup. However, when I run cap deploy I get this error: failed "sh -c 'cd /var/www/html/capifonytest/releases/20110920052019 && php app/console cache:warmup --env=prod'" on xxx.xx.xxx.xx. Here’s my deploy.rb file:

set :application, "capifonytest"

default_run_options[:pty] = true
set :scm, :git

set :deploy_to, "/var/www/html/#{application}"

set :repository, "[e-mail]:myname/myrepo.git"
set :branch, "master"
set :ssh_options, { :forward_agent => true }

set :user, "ec2-user"
set :domain, "xxx.xx.xxx.xx"
ssh_options[:keys] = [File.join(ENV["AWS_HOME"], "tsmith.pem")]

role :web,        domain                         # Your HTTP server, Apache/etc
role :app,        domain                         # This may be the same as your `Web` server
role :db,         domain, :primary => true       # This is where Rails migrations will run

set :use_sudo, true
set  :keep_releases,  3

Does anyone know of a good tutorial/resource for deploying a symfony2 app to a ec2 instance or using capifony/capistrano to do so? Also, any tips or tricks to get symfony2 working on an ec2 instance would be greatly appropriated. I’m running the amazon linux ami 64bit, which I believe is based on centos.

A little late, but…

If you recursively chown and chgrp your deploy directory (in your case /var/www/html/#{application}) with the deploy user, capifony should be able to clear the caches. In other words:

sudo chown -R ec2-user /var/www/html/#{application}
sudo chgrp -R ec2-user /var/www/html/#{application}
