Overview
The deploy button in the Engine Yard cloud dashboard is unresponsive, preventing code deployment. This issue is not related to a system outage but may be due to browser or UI issues. A workaround involves using the Engine Yard CLI to deploy code. The problem typically occurs when the dashboard interface fails to process the deploy button click.
Information
Issue: Deploy button unresponsive in Engine Yard cloud dashboard
Resolution Steps:
-
Check Deployment Status:
- After clicking the deploy button, check for any status messages below the button.
- If a deployment is triggered, the button will be disabled, and a "View Log" link will appear.
-
Review Deployment Logs:
- If a "View Log" link is available, open it to verify if the deployment started and check for any errors.
- Alternatively, SSH into the app master and review the latest log at
/home/deploy/<yourapp>-deploy.log.
-
Browser and UI Troubleshooting:
- Refresh the page and try clicking the deploy button again.
- Open the browser's developer console to check for any console errors when clicking the button.
- Try using an incognito/private window or a different browser.
- Disable browser extensions that might block scripts and clear cache/cookies.
-
Validate Deployment Options:
- Ensure the Ref field is set correctly if deploying from a non-default branch.
- Verify the migration command is valid for Ruby applications using migrations.
-
Workaround - Deploy via CLI:
- Use the Engine Yard CLI to deploy your application, bypassing the dashboard UI.
-
If Deployment Fails:
- If a deployment starts but fails, review the log to identify the failure point.
- Common issues include missing gems, configuration errors, or script timeouts.
Note: If the deploy button remains unresponsive and no logs are generated, share any console error messages with support for further assistance.
