Versions: - Ruby 2.1 - Capistrano 3.1
Platform: - working on OS X 10.9.1 - deploy to CentOS 6.5 On my target deployment server, i cannot ssh in as my deploy user, admin@myserver, but I can ssh in as paul@myserver and then sudo su - admin. I made a test task task :sayhello do on roles(:app) do as "admin" do puts capture "whoami" end end end And that works as expected: $ cap beta deploy:sayhello DEBUG [acaa0e6a] Running /usr/bin/env if ! sudo su admin -c whoami > /dev/null; then echo "You cannot switch to user 'admin' using sudo, please check the sudoers file" 1>&2; false; fi on awse-tweb01.foo.com DEBUG [acaa0e6a] Command: if ! sudo su admin -c whoami > /dev/null; then echo "You cannot switch to user 'admin' using sudo, please check the sudoers file" 1>&2; false; fi DEBUG [acaa0e6a] Finished in 6.982 seconds with exit status 0 (successful). DEBUG [153b980d] Running /usr/bin/env whoami on awse-tweb01.foo.com DEBUG [153b980d] Command: sudo su admin -c "/usr/bin/env whoami" DEBUG [153b980d] admin DEBUG [153b980d] Finished in 0.535 seconds with exit status 0 (successful). admin How can I have Capistrano run the deploy tasks as admin? i.e. prefixed with sudo su admin -c or sudo su the shell before running commands Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Capistrano" group.
