Restart command has never worked for me. I am using upgrade to restart unicorn after eac

Answer 1

I had a very similar problem and finally found the solution

I had looked through the logs before but obviously failed to see the (Bundler::GemfileNotFound) error. Turns out there are old references to earlier releases and once the gem file changes, the new master silently fails. Tail -f your unicorn log to see what happens. My issues were all fixed as per the link with the following in my unicorn.rb

 before_exec do |server|
    ENV['BUNDLE_GEMFILE'] = "#{root}/Gemfile"
 end
