Notes on deploy to stand alone server guide

[FrankyBoy]

Hi!

Notes from going through this guide on kubuntu 15.04

• ruby-bundler is not available via apt-get ... however you can do sudo gem install bundler
• during bundle-install some package failed as it could not find some ruby-header file even though I had the ruby1.9.1-dev installed ... sadly my system crashed in the meantime (yay virtualbox :P) or I would provide more infos there. Installing package "ruby-dev" fixed the issue.
• the rake command fell on its nose pretty hard (which is where I am stuck right now) ...

myuser@myuser-VirtualBox:~/kandan$ bundle exec rake db:create db:migrate kandan:bootstrap

rake with RAILS_ENV=production may help you.

[FrankyBoy]

@miurahr then maybe the guide should say so

[scouttyg]

@FrankyBoy My guess is raking with production will just skip the guard/guard process because its a gem in the development/test section of the app, so really this treats the symptom rather than the underlying cause. I think I've got a fix for this, I ran into a similar issue and should have a push to fix this shortly.

[miurahr]

@scouttyg The guide reffered https://github.com/kandanapp/kandan/blob/master/DEPLOY.md#standalone-server said to make configuration for production. such as

production:
  adapter: postgresql
  host: localhost

It is natural to guide adding RAILS_ENV=production

If the guide intend to lead user to prepare development/test environment, it should do so explicitly.
