Standup 9/16/2009: eycap :forward_agent, Rails 2.3 sends 2 content-types

Nate Clark

Interesting Things

  • One team had trouble deploying via capistrano to Engineyard’s Solo environment because SSH keys weren’t being sent correctly. Setting ssh_options[:forward_agent] = false in their Capistrano config fixed the problem.

  • After upgrading to Rails 2.3, Rails started sending two content-types down with each page’s headers, text/html, application/json. This was causing Selenium tests to choke.

  • If you scp a file to /etc/cron.d, cron will not notice the new file until you touch it.

    This seemed to only happen in Selenium mode, so we’re guessing it was a problem with Selenium RC FU or with the Selenium proxy or something.
