I have set config in file ./deliver/config
APP=“myproject”
BUILD_HOST=“MY_HOST”
BUILD_USER=“deploy”
BUILD_AT=“/home/deploy/app_build”
PRODUCTION_HOSTS=“MY_HOST”
PRODUCTION_USER=“deploy”
DELIVER_TO=“/home/deploy/app_release”
When I try to run command in my local machine:
mix edeliver build release
I get error:
A remote command failed on:
deploy@localhost
Output of the command is shown above and the command executed
on that host is printed below for debugging purposes:
FAILED with exit status 255:
set -e
if [ ! -d /home/deploy/app_build ]
then
mkdir -p /home/deploy/app_build
cd /home/deploy/app_build
git init &> /dev/null
git config receive.denyCurrentBranch ignore
else
cd /home/deploy/app_build
git config receive.denyCurrentBranch ignore
fi

Do you use
sshkeys for authentication into the server?vovkats
Yes. I do.
Also I use next versions:
{:edeliver, “~> 1.4.3”},
{:distillery, “~> 1.4”}

If you are using EC2 in AWS, then this should solve your problem
If you’re using Amazon EC2 hosts, you’ll most likely authenticate with your remote hosts by passing along a *.pem file when you establish your SSH connection.
Here is more about SSH part.

deployuser those commands in terminal on server everything works fine?vovkats
deploy user is role on server. I don’t run command
mix edeliver build release
in terminal on server
I use this guide
