stuck on deploy step

[jksdua]

Hi there,

I am trying to use the pm2 deploy feature but getting stuck on step 2 - deployment. I've run the setup command which successfully clones the repo but the next command throws the following error:

Edit: Works fine when using visionmedia/deploy directly.

    }
  }
}

Just have same issue here

Founds out that local git repository where ecosystem.json file located should be clean before deploying.

Forgot to add, worked for me when cloning pm2 project from github. Maybe the npm version is outdated or buggy.

[keithics]

i have the same issue. probably because of gitignore was cached.
in .gitignore added.
.deploys
source
then...
i did this git rm --cached .deploys and git rm --cached source

I have same issue,

Paste your ecosystem.json here

[raiscui]

{
  "apps" : [{
    "name"      : "Gabriel",
    "script"    : "appcoffee.coffee",
    "env": {
      "COMMON_VARIABLE": "true"
    },
    "env_dev" : {
      "NODE_ENV": "dev",
      "DEBUG":"*"
    }
  }
  ],
  "deploy" : {
    "dev" : {
      "user" : "nodejs",
      "host" : "gabriel",
      "ref"  : "master",
      "repo" : "[email protected]:rais/gabriel.git",
      "path" : "/home/nodejs/nodeapp/gabriel/development",
      "post-deploy" : "pm2 startOrRestart ecosystem.json --env dev"


    }
  }
}

the "gabriel" is local network pc

[jksdua]

Your repo isn't online yet so pm2 can't clone the repo. Push it to github,
clone it on your deployment server to confirm the server has access and try
again.

Alternatively, if the repo can be accessed via the local network, use that
url instead and follow the above steps.

my master pm2 server and deploy server both can clone the "[email protected]:rais/gabriel.git" .

it's a Private git project, but both pc can clone with "Deploy keys" for "[email protected]:rais/gabriel.git",

pm2 can got file cloned into deploy server -- "gabriel", that's "current , shared,source" ,3 folder, and current(source) folder is clean git data( I use git add, commit , diff ,status ..eg)

I don't understand when I run "pm2 deploy dev" , it show me :
--> Deploying to dev environment
--> on host gabriel
Not a git repository

I don't know what folder and why it said "Not a git repository" ??

(both PC , I used "nodejs" user for do all things,)

Same issue here.

jenkins@alentame-server:~$ pm2 deploy ecosystem.json production setup
--> Deploying to production environment
--> on host localhost
  ○ running setup
  ○ cloning [email protected]:trentosoftware/futbol-amateur.git
Cloning into '/home/deploy/alentame-web/source'...
  ○ setup complete
--> Success

And then...

jenkins@alentame-server:~/workspace$ pm2 deploy ecosystem.json production 
--> Deploying to production environment
--> on host localhost
Not a git repository

ecosystem.json:

{
  "apps" : [
    {
      "name"      : "alentame",
      "script"    : "server/bin/www.js",
      "env": {
        "COMMON_VARIABLE": "true"
      },
      "env_production" : {
        "NODE_ENV": "production"
      }
    }
  ],

  "deploy" : {
    "production" : {
      "user" : "deploy",
      "host" : "localhost",
      "ref"  : "origin/master",
      "repo" : "[email protected]:trentosoftware/futbol-amateur.git",
      "path" : "/home/deploy/alentame-web",
      "post-deploy" : "pm2 startOrRestart ecosystem.json --env production"
    }
  }
}

I have two users on the same machine. I want my jenkins user to run pm2 deploy command in order to let deploy user to do his job.

Any ideas?

[alentame]

Seems to be an issue with the deploy script.

I added a comment here: visionmedia/deploy#22

[Jokero]

Same issue(

[levequej]

it seems that this bug came back with 2.4.0, It's also solved for me if I cwd to $path/source

[t0lkman]

so how to fix the issue?

www-data@vps:~/tools$ pm2 deploy --version
3.2.9

[tx46]

Still having this issue, what do I do?

[pbmzero]

I found this thread after getting the commit or stash changes before deploying, i had my changes committed. In my case the message was misleading i was missing setup argument in the deploy syntax

Failed:
pm2 deploy ecosystem.config.js production
--> Deploying to production environment
--> on host 10.125.133.22
commit or stash your changes before deploying
Deploy failed

vs

pm2 deploy ecosystem.config.js production setup

[drthoben]

Could #193 be the problem in your cases?
