Rails 3.1 Deploy to Production (with Apache & Passenger) Asset Problems

问题

Rails 3.1 has changed the way it handles the asset pipeline and it is causing issues when deploying to production.

I am using Apache and Passenger, which seem to work fine.

My production is setup like this (for now).

# congif/environments/production.rb
config.cache_classes = false
config.consider_all_requests_local       = true
config.action_controller.perform_caching = true
config.serve_static_assets = false
config.assets.compress = true
config.assets.compile = false
config.assets.digest = true
config.action_dispatch.x_sendfile_header = "X-Sendfile" # for apache

I run rake assets:precompile on Ubuntu and start server. And... nothing. None of my images load.

The legendary 'I can't find an image at this URL' box.

I run rake assets:precompile on CentOS and start server. And... permission errors.

*Error Compiling CSS Asset*
Errno::EACCESS: Permission Denied - [app path]/tmp/cache/assets/E95
[path to RVM Ruby]/fileutils.rb:243:in 'mkdir'

I can't get it to budge. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

UPDATE

This solution has worked every time for me:

First Clean out your Assets

rm -rf public/assets

and

rake assets:clean RAILS_ENV=production

Second, in #production.rb change

config.assets.compile = false

to

config.assets.compile = true

Third, run to precompile your assets

rake assets:precompile RAILS_ENV=production

Fourth, in #production.rb change

config.assets.compile = true

back to

config.assets.compile = false

Fifth, restart your server by running:

touch tmp/restart.txt

Sixth, un-restrict permissions on your newly created assets by running this command

chmod -R 777 public/assets

Seventh, celebrate!!

回答1:

That's a simple permission problem. Give the server/daemon the right to create files in [app_path]/tmp recursively.

Assuming your server process runs with the www-data user you do this with:

cd APP_PATH
chmod -R u+w tmp

and if the directory does not belong to the user you have to change the ownership:

chown -R www-data tmp

回答2:

Try creating public/assets via sudo or try performing rvmsudo rake assets:precompile - essentially, it's not able to create the directory on your server — hence the error.

On Windows 8:

1. Remove references to stylesheets
2. Restart production
3. Go to an affected page using browser
4. Add stylesheet references back
5. Restart production
6. Worked for me!

Your updated solution did not work for me. I am on rails 4.2 and css and js works only when I set config.serve_static_files = true (which is not recommended but it is the only way I can make things work here).
