Error at dokuen create

[ololduck]

So, I tried installing it on an Ubuntu-server 12.04 LTS. Everything went fine, except on dokuen create --aplication=name

I followed standard installation procedure, as detailed in the README.

Please find the full command and error log below.

$ ssh git@ip_address dokuen create --application=test

I am at your disposal for any further test or information.

[peterkeen]

It looks like it's running /usr/local/bin/dokuen instead of the one from your install directory. Could you show me:

• ls -la your_dokuen_install_directory/bin
• cat your_dokuen_install_directory/bin/dokuen
• cat your_git_user_home_dir/.gitolite.rc
• cat your_gitolite_src_dir/src/commands/dokuen

Thanks!

[peterkeen]

Ah! In your .gitolite.rc file, the 'dokuen' => 1 line needs to be in the COMMANDS section. Like this:

    COMMANDS                    =>
        {
            'help'              =>  1,
            'desc'              =>  1,
            # 'fork'            =>  1,
            'info'              =>  1,
            # 'mirror'          =>  1,
            'perms'             =>  1,
            # 'sskm'            =>  1,
            'writable'          =>  1,
            # 'D'               =>  1,
            'dokuen'          => 1,
        },

[ololduck]

After correcting the 'dokuen' => 1,, the error persists.

Have I missed something?

In doubt, i will make a new clean install.

[peterkeen]

@paulollivier If you just ssh git@192.168.0.19 do you get some stuff from gitolite or do you get a bash prompt? If everything is working correctly you should get some help from gitolite and then get disconnected.

[jphastings]

Hi @pauloliver, @peterkeen,

I was having the same problem, and I've got an idea as to where it comes from.

Depending on how you install RVM, it can put the RVM bin path in front of your /usr/local/ path, which means the dokuen exexcutable from your gems directory can get executed rather than the other (which includes the config file information).

A quick fix is to send the command ssh git@server dokuen create --application=<app name> --config=/usr/local/var/dokuen/dokuen.conf (this only works if you installed dokuen to the recommended directory).

[teamon]

Wrong. @jphastings this might help https://gist.github.com/dd7ffd2dbde27bc32446, but prepare for long journey.

Btw, dokuen leaves running processes when scaling down

[peterkeen]

@teamon that looks like super useful information ... if I could read Polish. Do you think you could provide an English translation of your notes?

Also I was sure I fixed the running process issue at some point. I'll look into it. It's possible I fixed it on my own install and didn't push a new gem out.

[teamon]

Uh, sure, https://gist.github.com/dd7ffd2dbde27bc32446

[peterkeen]

Great, thanks. So there's problems on multiple fronts :)

First off it looks like Dokuen is not working with more recent versions of
Foreman. Should be easy to fix.

Second, the nginx path is hardcoded. That one is trivial to add a config
option for.

Third, there's a problem with Mason. I'll have to look into that one and
maybe talk with @ddollar about it.

Fourth, Mason is not compatible with Ruby 1.8.7. I'm not sure if I'll be
able to do anything about that, except maybe remove the dependency on Mason
altogether.

+1 I had no success, it seems gitolite doesn't see dokuen
