Thanks guys,
I think it might be something to do with the capistrano login session.
If I use essentially the same code as Samer for my cap task:
desc "Start Backgroundrb"
task :start_backgroundrb, :roles => [:app] do
run "#{deploy_to}/current/script/backgroundrb start --
environment=production"
end
I get the following output:
cap restart_backgroundrb
* executing `restart_backgroundrb'
* executing "/var/webapps/optics/current/script/backgroundrb start
--environment=production"
servers: ["192.168.10.60"]
Password:
[192.168.10.60] executing command
** [out :: 192.168.10.60] Starting BackgrounDRb ....
command finished
This updates the pid file with 4488. However look up the pid and
nothing:
$ ps aux | grep 4488
deploy 4534 0.0 0.0 3924 680 pts/1 S+ 10:30 0:00 grep
4488
If however I run the cap task's run command by hand on the server via
a normal ssh session (same user, "deploy") the pid generated actually
refers
to a running process:
$script/backgroundrb start --environment=production
$ps aux | grep 5080
deploy 5080 0.6 1.6 57536 51088 pts/1 S 10:44 0:00 ruby
script/backgroundrb start --environment=production
deploy 5089 0.0 0.0 3920 676 pts/1 S+ 10:44 0:00 grep
background
I guess there is something specific about the cap session that is
different to a regular ssh. If I can't find a solution, as suggested I
suppose I could use god/monit to restart the process locally and just
use the cap task to stop the backgroundrb process, which it doesn't
seem to have a problem with unlike starting.
Thanks for your help, Andrew.

It looks like the restart of backgroundrb failed to start backgroundrb
because restart's stop-backgroundrb failed (nothing running, nothing
to stop), and quit the task.
If that's the case, perhaps a start_backgroundrb task is in order? I'm
controlling backgroundrb via god, and calling them from capistrano w/
the following task set:
$ cap -T |grep backgroundrb
cap restart_backgroundrb # restart backgroundrb servers
cap start_backgroundrb # start backgroundrb servers
cap stop_backgroundrb # stop backgroundrb servers
# Backgroundrb Server TASKS
%w(start stop restart).each do |cmd|
desc "#{cmd} backgroundrb servers"
task "#{cmd}_backgroundrb".to_sym, :roles => :app do
run "sudo #{god} #{cmd} backgroundrb"
end
end
hope that helps,
Erik
