api-umbrella-deploy user's password

[dmolinaestrada]

I am trying to deploy from git (http://nrel.github.io/api-umbrella/docs/deployment/).
In this step "$ bundle exec cap production deploy", I need the api-umbrella-deploy's password. Which is?

Thank

I change a api-umbrella-deploy user's password and I can continue, but I get another error:

I am deploying in Ubuntu 14.04

In our default setup instructions, the "api-umbrella-deploy" user doesn't actually have a password. Instead, we have you setup ssh keys for that account so the logins all happen via those keys rather than with a passowrd. However, if you want to use a password, like you setup, that's also fine.

This second error you ran into is I believe an omission in our installation scripts that will be fixed in the upcoming v0.7 package release, but I forgot to document in the current instructions. If you want to fix this now, can you try adding the following file to your server at /etc/sudoers.d/api-umbrella:

Defaults:api-umbrella-deploy !requiretty

Cmnd_Alias API_UMBRELLA_DEPLOY_COMMANDS = /etc/init.d/api-umbrella,/usr/bin/api-umbrella
api-umbrella-deploy ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:API_UMBRELLA_DEPLOY_COMMANDS

After putting that file into place on the server, do your deployments now work?

The new packages have been released which should include these sudoers fixes for deployments. So I'm going to close this issue, but please reopen if you're still running into any issues.
