"to :launch" creates restart.txt in the wrong directory

[jmuheim]

to :launch do
  queue "touch #{deploy_to}/tmp/restart.txt"
end

This creates a file in my-rails-app/tmp/restart.txt, but passenger searches it here: my-rails-app/current/tmp/restart.txt.

Is this a problem on my side or should it be fixed in your gem?

[jmuheim]

I solved the problem for my case by talking directly to the daemon:

    to :launch do
      # queue "touch #{deploy_to}/tmp/restart.txt"
      queue "svc -h ~/service/nginx"
    end

Still, I'd be interested in an answer here.

This seems to fix it

to :launch do
  queue "touch #{deploy_to}/current/tmp/restart.txt"
end

to :launch do
  queue "touch #{deploy_to}/current/tmp/restart.txt"
end

is giving me this error:

touch: cannot touch `/home/xxx/apps/xxx/current/tmp/restart.txt': No such file or directory!     ERROR: Deploy failed.

Manually SSHing in and running the command works fine.

This is working for me:

queue "mkdir #{deploy_to}/current/tmp; touch #{deploy_to}/tmp/restart.txt"

I ran into this as well... and it's 4 months since this thread started. How come it's not fixed in the recipe?

This is a very good question.
