Local Capistrano Deployment Issue I have an inssue when deploying PHP application on "local" machine (e.g. deploying app to same machine where executing capistrano deploy.) using Capistrano. The cause is when capistrano creates temporary directory for destination (remote) directory and directory for source (local) directory point to same directory. This problem does not happen when you deploy to different machine. Solution Add the below code to your deploy.rb!! Just change the name for temoprary directory used during deployment name. # put this line at the top of app.yml in order to use SecureRandom methods require "securerandom" # set flag true when local deployment set :deploy_to_self, "true" # hook tasks before :deploy, "local:create_dir" after :deploy, "local:clean_dir" #################################### # setup copy_dir, copy_remote_dir # when deploying to machine which this script is running on to avoid copy issue # na
