Question

I’m using rails 3.1.0 and trying to setup Capistrano to precompile assets. Capistrano v2.8.0 has “load ‘deploy/assets'” in Capfile. But when I run “cap deploy” it shows the following error:

cap deploy
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/capistrano/configuration/loading.rb:183:in `find_file_in_load_path': no such file to load -- deploy/assets (LoadError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/capistrano/configuration/loading.rb:171:in `load_from_file'

UPDATE

It magically started working after I restarted my PC (Ubuntu).

Can you please demonstrate that the cap that you are using is indeed in the bundle?

Please share your Gemfile and your Capfile, chances are that “cap” isn’t in the bundle, so it’s loading a previous version, be sure to run with “bundle exec” (to make sure to use the correct capistrano)
