This isn't entirely accurate. There are some install scripts that can be run when the plugin includes them. (for example, setting up some config files for you) For example, look at the following plugin (one our customers use for deployment for http://railsboxcar.com/ ) http://github.com/planetargon/boxcar-conductor/tree/master You'll see in the README that there is a command to run script/runner install.rb if you're doing manually. So, if you are doing it manually, make sure to check for an install.rb (or uninstall if you're removing a plugin) Cheers, Robby -- Robby Russell Chief Evangelist, Partner PLANET ARGON, LLC design // development // hosting w/Ruby on Rails http://www.planetargon.com/ http://www.robbyonrails.com/ aim: planetargon +1 503 445 2457 +1 877 55 ARGON [toll free] +1 815 642 4068 [fax] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
