Capistrano: unable to access ~ / releases /: no such file or directory

Question

After I bundle update both on my local computer and on the server, I can no longer deploy it. The error I get is kind of right, as I suppose, but I can not understand what is happening:

My deploy.rb looks like this:

 # The name of the app set :application, "strana_cvetov" # The address of the remote host set :location, "robotinthecloak.com" # setup some Capistrano roles role :app, location role :web, location role :db, location, :primary => true # The directory on the server that will be deployed to set :deploy_to, "~/rails_apps/#{application}" # The type of Source Code Management system set :scm, :git # The location of the LOCAL repository relative to the current app set :repository, "ssh:// ubuntu@ #{location}/~/git/#{application}.git" # The way in which files will be transferred from repository to remote host set :deploy_via, :copy set :use_sudo, false #tell git to clone only the latest revision and not the whole repository set :git_shallow_clone, 1 set :keep_releases, 5 #options necessary to make Ubuntus SSH happy ssh_options[:paranoid] = false default_run_options[:pty] = true set :rails_env, :production # Set up SSH so it can connect to the EC2 node - assumes your SSH key is in ~/.ssh/id_rsa set :user, "ubuntu" # Passenger namespace :deploy do task :start do ; end task :stop do ; end task :restart, :roles => :app, :except => { :no_release => true } do run "#{try_sudo} touch #{File.join(current_path,'tmp','restart.txt')}" end namespace :assets do task :precompile, :roles => :web, :except => { :no_release => true } do run "cd #{current_path} && #{bundle exec rake} RAILS_ENV=#{rails_env} RAILS_GROUPS=assets assets:precompile --trace" end end end after "deploy:create_symlink", "deploy:resymlink", "deploy:update_crontab" 

When I run deploy:check it says that You appear to have all necessary dependencies installed .

I searched the Internet, on this site, tried all the solutions that I could find, but nothing worked.

Other projects on this server do not deploy with the same error, but a couple of days ago everything worked fine, and I did not touch anything. What's happening?

Answer 1

Use full path when deploying, '~' may spoof

 set :deploy_to, "/home/username/rails_apps/#{application}" 

Answer 2

An error is reported for this problem.
