Slingshot Hosting Broken

Published January 23, 2007 tagged with: Hosting Slingshot

It’s not often that we here at Highgroove Studios make mistakes (joke), but the Slingshot Hosting Application was broken for a few hours recently.

I added several new plans (based on our customer feedback), wrote tests to ensure that they worked, and then checked the code back into our repository so I could deploy:


cap deploy

All was great until one of our customers notified me of an error when trying to order one of these new plans! What I should have run was:


cap deploy_with_migrations

Easy to fix, and even easier to push out changes! Problem solved.

Not using Capistrano yet? Sign up with Slingshot and get a customized capistrano deployment recipe file and our very own slingshot.rb library that makes setting up your application a breeze.
