Capistrano for Rails 3.1

Question

I am using Rails 3.1 and Capistrano, I get

No such file or directory

errors for /public/images, /public/stylesheets, and public/javascripts

errors. Searching the Internet, I found a number of blog posts suggesting

set :normalize_asset_timestamps, false

which removed these problems. However, I am not sure if I am doing the right thing since precompile still fails and I am new to Rails 3.1.

rake RAILS_ENV=production RAILS_GROUPS=assets assets:precompile

still fails on the production server.

I set

load 'deploy/assets'
set :rake,      "bundle exec rake"

in deploy.rb but it doesn't help. Still cap deploy complains that it cannot find certain gems

Thanks in advance for any help.

That does indeed fix the error for me. If you're using bundler and rvm make sure your settings are correct. More info can be found with a quick google of rvm capistrano or rvm bundler but my settings in deploy.rb are below:

For RVM my settings are:

# Load RVM's capistrano plugin.
require "rvm/capistrano"
set :rvm_path, "$HOME/.rvm"
set :rvm_ruby_string, <Insert your RVM settings here>
set :rvm_type, :user  # Don't use system-wide RVM

My bundler settings are:

# Comment these two lines out if you aren't using bundler
set :bundle_roles, [:app]
require 'bundler/capistrano'
