I try to deploy my rails 3.1 application with capistrano but it fails with following output:
rake aborted!
File name too long - /srv/good2go.ch/cookbook/releases/20110727063856/tmp/cache/assets/sprockets%2Fsrv%2Fgood2go.ch%2Fcookbook%2Fshared%2Fbundle%2Fruby%2F1.9.1%2Fgems%2Faloha_rails-0.1.4%2Flib%2Fassets%2Fjavascripts%2Faloha%2Fplugins%2Fcom.gentics.aloha.plugins.HighlightEditables%2Fcss%2FHighlightEditables.css%3Asource20110727-2736-dx9guk.lock
Tasks: TOP => assets:precompile
It's this task who fails: RAILS_ENV=production rake assets:precompile
Anyone an idea what it could be?
The problem is that sprockets uses a somewhat quoted URL identifier to the gem. This can get very long.
This issue has been reported to the sprockets issue tracker at github and has been fixed by using a hexdigest instead of the full URL in this commit.
As of today, there has been no new (beta) release containing the fix. But you may use the sprocket version by pointing to github in your Gemfile:
gem 'sprockets', :git => 'https://github.com/sstephenson/sprockets.git'
