Dandelion seems to deploy, but files don't change #148

I've been trying to deploy a revision with no success. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that I had deployed this project through a different deployment method (used Springloops UI). For this project, I initially ran dandelion init <version> after creating my dandelion.yml file:

adapter: ftp
host:  <hostname>
username: <username>
password: <password>
path: public_html
exclude:
    - .gitignore
    - dandelion.yml
    - branches/
    - tags/
    - trunk/cache/

All seemed to be well, as I connected to the server without issue and dandelion status told me that the remote revision was what I had set it to. When running dandelion deploy --dry-run, I saw the file that needed to be changed. Same with dandelion deploy. Deploying threw no errors at all, and in fact the revision updated on the server... but manually checking the file told me that my changes didn't go through. My git version is 2.3.8 (Apple Git-58) and Dandelion version is 0.4.15.

I hope that this makes sense to you! I couldn't find anything that was quite my issue in here.

Hmm, that's curious. Not sure how to debug this since I cannot reproduce the issue. Can you try uploading one of the changed files w/ another FTP client? This way we can rule out an issue w/ the server.

alexelash commented 8 years ago

Totally understand. I was hoping that I'd written something wrong in my dandelion.yml file without realizing it, to be honest. Uploading/overwriting the file (style.css in this case) through Transmit was successful.

Not sure if this is relevant, but I had put my password in quotes. Looking at the docs, I see that they aren't in quotes. Now when I run dandelion status, I do get an error (see attached). screen shot 2015-11-10 at 1 15 17 pm

Password in quotes shouldn't matter. To deal with the 425 you may want to try setting passive: true in your dandelion.yml file. Still not sure why the file contents would not be updated.

alexelash commented 8 years ago

Alright, I got it working now. Still a bit mysterious to me! Maybe passive needed to be set to true?

Files are uploading too?

alexelash commented 8 years ago

Oh man, I feel silly. I see what the problem was. Actually, not sure why deployments seemed to work. I'm deploying the contents of a trunk/ folder, but never set local_path: trunk. Now that I have done so, I was able to upload a new file. Thanks for your help!
