I am using Capistrano for deploying a Rails app to Amazon EC2. In the deploy files, I have following credentials for connecting to Amazon EC2:
set :user, "bitnami"
#set :user, "root"
server "ec2-XX-XXX-XXX-XX.compute-1.amazonaws.com", :app, :web, :db, :primary => true
ssh_options[:keys] = ["/Users/ada/my_amazon_ec2.pem"]
When I run cap deploy:setup and cap deploy:check, I get following:
The following dependencies failed. Please check them and try again:
--> You do not have permissions to write to `/www/myapp'. (ec2-XX-XXX-XXX-XX.compute-1.amazonaws.com)
--> You do not have permissions to write to `/www/myapp/releases'. (ec2-XX-XXX-XXX-XX.compute-1.amazonaws.com)
How's that possible? I am able to connect via SSH to EC2 as the user bitnami, but when I try it as the user root, I get the message that I should use the bitnami user for login and the connection is closed.
If I try to change in the deploy files change the bitnami user for root, the whole deployment process is ok, but then when I log in through SSH (as the bitnami user) to EC2, I don't see any files that should be deployed, the final directory is just empty.
What is wrong in this case?
Thank you so much
