It is the fifth time I try from scratch the deployment and have had deployed previously without any major problem. Think is, I don't know if it because now default repositories submit passenger 6, but I can find a way to get the app in passenger working. When I deploy with capistrano, It always fails in the point of restarting passenger:

05:16 passenger:restart
01 passenger-config restart-app /home/deploy/redvies --ignore-app-not-running
01 *** ERROR: Phusion Passenger(R) doesn't seem to be running. If you are sure that it

01 PassengerInstanceRegistryDir option, Nginx's

01 environment variable PASSENGER_INSTANCE_REGISTRY_DIR to that directory
01 and run this command again.

Passenger status says everything is alright, but again, no app is running. I have triple check everything, but it seems something has changed. Any idea?

I think it is not OK to have a guide with lastest versions that is autogenerated to rank well in SEO keywords but that actually isn't updated as it is and can't be used without problems. Repos, passenger, node there are a lot of problematic parts.

Hi Chris! It would be also great to have an update on guides for deploying into VPS with Caddy intead of NGINX. Just forgetting about certs make it easier yet.

Thanks!

I have the same thought. Everything was easier before javascript took our world

I have used for recent installation with ubuntu 20.04 and ruby 2.6.6

at some point nginx get unresolved dependencies, and you have to get a new repo:

deb https://oss-binaries.phusionpassenger.com/apt/passenger focal main

in the end the problem is phusion passenger doesn't start automatically. How can I fix that?

This is giving rails a new whole lifespan. Love it.

Hi Chris!

How would you model those profiles?
I understand that is an optional extension, but I'm not sure yet how to shape that concept. An additional model?

In my case every profile has a different set of attributes, and getting all of them in the same model would be a mess. What would be the proper way?

Me too. I prefer Stimulus over all other options. Is the Rails way. So easy and useful.

Hi, I have been thinking about that since a few Days ago. I don't know which is more efficient and how much, and also how easy/hard could be the migration from one to the other. Any experience/insight here?

Thanks again. I really appreciate your help and the help of the community.

Thank you for the help, Chris.

It was weird, because I did that, and at times worked and everything loaded fine, and some others don't. I couldn't find specific patters.

I have found a solution that works consistently now, and was adding

set :linked_dirs, fetch(:linked_dirs, []).push('public/packs', 'node_modules')

to config/deploy.rb

Not sure if I was a victim of a very specific case, or did something wrong in the past, but can't understand fully the issue.

I made it work again manually (without fixing the problem) by doing:

1. Yarn upgrade in the server
2. Entering in the current folder, and executing 'RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake webpacker:compile'
3. Then compiles, and I could see the files in the latest release but I didn't correspond with ones in the folder current.
4. Then, I did reboot, and it worked.

Could it be that Capistrano is missing something?
Could it be that Capistrano need a reboot to apply some changes in JS? (contents are applied instanly)

There is not such file in the disk:

Error and file missing

The this is, I'm not sure what to conclude. Was the compilation still a success intead there is no file there?

Please, check again the JS error link. I fix it.

I'm including pack in the layout including this line between < head > and < /head >:

<%= javascript_pack_tag 'application' %>

in the application.html.erb

Sorry, I don't know what happened with the format.

This is the capistrano log:

http://www.adeter.org/capistrano.log

and this is the error showed in the browser's inspector:

JS error

Thanks

The error in the inspector is:

The error is that the files on the folder webpack are not found. In consequence none of the javascript components are loaded. I have checked yarn is installed in the server.

I have read that there is a couple of gems:

• capistrano-yarn and capistrano nvm that may help, but just don't want to mess the project installing stuff that I don't know and without knowing what I pursuit.

On the other hand, in config/deploy.rb there is:

# Default value for linked_dirs is []
append :linked_dirs, "log", "tmp/pids", "tmp/cache", "tmp/sockets", "vendor/bundle", "public/system", "public/uploads"

in which isn't include app/javascript/packs.

I don't know if this might be the problem.

Hi, I have been using happily rails until I decided to try stimulusJS. In the begining was great. I saw great value using it. The thing is the assets in the pack folder are not compiled when doing "cap production deploy".

Is there something I should do after trying webpack to get all that assets compiled?

Thanks

PD: Since I started my main project with Rails 5.0, I did use the deplyment guide of this page.

This is really amazing. I really hoped for this episode. Thanks.

Great episode Chris!

I was really missing more videos about managing your own sercer in the day to day with all these useful things.
