Re: Password isn't being asked anymore

After debugging cap.... the problem is that in my case the password of the gateway user isn't the same as the password of the user on the server behind the gateway.

When cap connects to the gateway server, it asks for the password of the gateway user. Once given, the value of options[:password] (which was Proc.new { self.class.password_prompt }) will be overwritten by the password entered via the keyboard. Upon successful login to the gateway, cap then connects to the server behind the gateway. Again it will need to ask for the password, however, options[:password] is overwritten, and it will therefor (incorrectly) try to login with the password given for the gateway server.

I've created a patch with a fairly simple solution:

Hi,

So last friday I'd set up perfectly fine running capfile + deploy.rb scripts, but due to a server reboot over the weekend my mongrel servers weren't up anymore. Thinking I could simply start them again with cap deploy:start I suddenly am unable to connect to the server. 

I'm connecting via a gateway. Friday I only had to the enter the password to the gateway once, and it was remembered for subsequent calls to cap. It would however always ask me for the password to the server behind the gateway.

Now however, every time I try cap (in vain), I have to enter the password to the gateway server each and every time, and when it tries to connect to the server which is behind the gateway it does not ask for a password.

I tried ssh'ing manually, and that works fine, no problem.

Any idea why cap is failing on me suddenly??

I've tried ssh_options[:verbose] = :debug, but that's not really helpful cq unreadable gibberish to me.... are there any other options??

(are the ssh_options btw applied to session to the gateway, and/or from the gateway to the app server?)

  * executing `deploy:check'
  * executing "test -d /var/www/myproject/releases"
    servers: ["10.0.0.20"]

    starting connection to gateway `myuser-D4qZEMI14/jqlBn2x/YWAg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

    gateway connection established
