I am using Capistrano to deploy a Ruby on Rails application to a server. Everything is running up until the point when bundle install is called in which case I get the error "Some gems seem to be missing from your vendor/cache directory."
This error is caused because there are some gems checked into the vendor/cache directory of the git repository that Capistrano is cloning from. I understand the best approach would be to clean up the git repository but since that is not an option for me I would like to have Capistrano delete the vendor/cache directory on the remote server after the git clone but before the call to bundle. I have run the steps manually and have found that by deleting the directory manually bundle executes correctly but I can't seem to figure out how to get Capistrano to perform the delete.
Here is the pertinent fragment from my deploy.rb file:
after "deploy:update_code" do
run "rm -rf #{release_path}/vendor/cache"
end
after "deploy:update_code", "bundle:install"
And here is the command line output
executing `deploy:update_code'
executing locally: "git ls-remote my_git_repository HEAD"

* executing "git clone [snipped for brevity]
servers: ["my_server"]
[my_server] executing command

** [out :: my_server]
** [out :: my_server] Could not find gem-version in any of the sources

It does not look like run "rm -rf #{release_path}/vendor/cache"
ever gets run. Am I using the correct command? Any other ideas on what I should do?
