I'm trying to set up capistrano with my Rails app and hosting using digitalocean.
I have a Ubuntu server running unicorn and nginx.
My capistrano deploy keeps failing at this stage:
DEBUG [08cab5b3] Command: cd /home/rails/automata && ( GIT_ASKPASS=/bin/echo GIT_SSH=/tmp/automata/git-ssh.sh /usr/bin/env git clone --mirror [email protected]:automata_tech/staging.git /home/rails/automata/repo )

I have generated a ssh key on the server and added it to my bitbucket account.
If I ssh into the server and git clone the repo, that works fine.
Running ssh -T [email protected] on the server returns:
logged in as company.
You can use git or hg to connect to Bitbucket. Shell access is disabled.
staging.rb :
set :ssh_options, {
forward_agent: true,
auth_methods: %w(publickey)
}
Your error message shows a permission denied error when trying to create the directory /home/rails/automata/repo. In other words, your deployer user doesn't have the necessary file permissions. It has nothing to do with your SSH key or Bitbucket.
Just make sure that /home/rails/automata exists and is owned by deployer. You may need to use sudo or log in as root to do this.
mkdir -p /home/rails/automata
chown deployer /home/rails/automata
BTW, I'm not sure placing your app inside /home/rails makes sense. If you are using deployer to deploy (and thus be the owner of) your app, wouldn't it make more sense to put it in /home/deployer? Or in a "neutral" location like /var/www/automata (as Capistrano suggests by default)?
