You're welcome, François. BTW, I am still using that script for all my deploys. I didn't immediately see it, but does your solution include something for process monitoring and automatic restarts (like monit) and/or some basic load balancing ? In my experience the combination of these two makes for a more robust solution. Maybe that is the next step ;-) Sven > On Thu, Aug 14, 2014 at 1:02 PM, François Stephany > <tulipe.mouta...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > At Ta Mère, we are used to deploy Ruby/Rails application with Heroku or on > VPS with Capistrano.
