Question

On a deployment server we have ZSH set as the default shell for the deployment user. On login this works fine, however when cap deploy is run, it appears to be executing bash instead of zsh as it has problems with a few specific zsh commands which are not recognized. It’s not a serious problem, but I’d like to eliminate this by instructing the deployment script to use zsh instead of bash. How is this done?

Answer 1

you can add the following line to you deploy.rb

default_run_options[:shell] = '/bin/zsh'
