I’m brand new to Capistrano, working with an existing server that was previously using chef to run deployments.
I have set :use_sudo, true in my deploy.rb, and yet “cap deploy:check” claims “You do not have permissions to write to ‘/srv/app/'”
My deployment user is correctly configured to sudo without a password prompt. If I manually run “sudo test -w /srv/app” on the server, it succeeds.
Why isn’t Capistrano using sudo?
The command fails because the directory does not exist. You should first run
cap deploy:setupAfter thatcap deploy:checksucceeds.
