I have a Rails app running under mongrel as a windows service on a Windows Server 2003 installation.
I'd like to automate deploying new versions of the app from my Ubuntu dev server.
Cygwin is installed on the Windows server for this purpose. I can connect in via ssh and net stop servicename
but net start servicename
doesn't bring the service up. My initial thoughts were maybe there are windows-specific paths involved in mongrel::service and under a cygwin environment it chokes?
Any help would be appreciated!
