I couldn't get cap to deploy my rails project because of a precompile error for the longest time. Found a script that cleared the error on the cap deploy, but NOW Rails in production is throwing a 500 and saying application.css isn't precompiled.
Here's the rundown:
Setup - Ruby 2.0.0p0, Rails 3.2.13, Twitter-Bootstrap, Capistrano deploy to VPS with Passenger and Nginx
Original command:
cap deploy
Error:

end
end
Capfile:
load 'deploy'
# Uncomment if you are using Rails' asset pipeline
load 'deploy/assets'
load 'config/deploy' # remove this line to skip loading any of the default tasks
Application.rb includes:
config.assets.initialize_on_precompile = false
Per instructions found on StackOverflow: rake assets:precompile attempting to connect to database
Database.yml is setup for production database. Database migrates just fine etc.
Currently just followed this and added the script: Speed up assets:precompile with Rails 3.1/3.2 Capistrano deployment
Precompile works on VPS and locally ran with --trace:
rake RAILS_ENV=production RAILS_GROUPS=assets assets:precompile
And it deployed fine, but now my app is serving up the "We're sorry, BUT something went wrong." and my production.log is giving me this error:
ActionView::Template::Error (application.css isn't precompiled):
4: %meta{:content => "width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0", :name => "viewport"}
app/assets/stylesheets/application.css.scss

}
EDIT- SHOWING NEW ERROR: For some reason now it doesn't even get to that and my production.log file shows this even though rake db:migrate in production works fine and database.yml is all correct:
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid (PG::Error: ERROR: permission denied for relation reviews
