I was following the Railscast on Deploying to a VPS and everything goes smooth till I try and run cap deploy. It seems to fails when trying to find a directory. Here is the error message:
* executing `deploy'

I have spent ages on this and can't seem to find where I'm going wrong.

At its core, Capistrano uses tasks provided by the Rake build tool to describe various actions that will update and deploy your application. It then supercharges these tasks with its own intuitive DSL that helps execute commands in Unix shell on a local machine or a remote server.
Have you run cap deploy:setup and cap deploy:check? These should highlight a lot of common issues.
The error causing failure above however looks like a permissions issue.
cp: cannot create directory `/home/deployer/apps/dropwall_rails/releases/20120513204913': No such file or directory
Make sure that the folder exists and that the deployment user has the correct permissions to manipulate it.
