Deploy using Capistrano - is only run for servers matching

Im trying to deploy my application using Capistrano, but I get this error message:

`deploy:setup' is only run for servers matching {:except=>{:no_release=>true}}, but no servers matched

When running this command:

bundle exec cap deploy:setup

Here is my deploy.rb file.

set :application, "example.com"
set :repository, "[email protected]:username/repo.git"
set :use_sudo, false
set :scm, :git
set :web, application
set :app, application
set :db, application
set :branch, "master"
set :user, "webmaster"
set :deploy_to,  "/opt/www/#{application}"
set :deploy_via, :remote_cache
set :domain, application
set :port, 2222

set :bundler_cmd, "bundle install --deployment --without=development,test"
ssh_options[:paranoid] = false

namespace :deploy do
  task :start do ; end
  task :stop do ; end

  task :restart_stalker do
    run "cd #{deploy_to}/current && thor stalker:kill && stalker:init"
  end

  task :restart, :roles => :app, :except => { :no_release => true } do
    run "cd #{deploy_to}/current && touch tmp/restart.txt"
  end

  after "bundler_cmd", "deploy:restart_stalker"
end

I'm using Rails 3.

I'm going to leave an answer here that helped me that when none of the suggested answers here or elsewhere could help me - I spent days researching this issue before I found a fix.

Make sure that if using multistage that the environment specific config files (e.g. config/deploy/environment.rb) are the only files in the config/deploy directory. I had an environment, dev that I was unable to deploy too, turned out there somehow was a complete empty config/deploy/dev file that was getting loaded instead of my config/deploy/dev.rb file, causing every deployment to that environment fail with the posted error.

Most people are probably using multistage with capistrano so you wouldnt put your roles in the deploy.rb, so if you have added environment specific roles in config/deploy/#env_name.rb then make sure to add these in your config/deploy.rb

set :stages, %w(#env_name1, #env_name2...)
require 'capistrano/ext/multistage'

and make sure the capistrano-ext gem is installed.

You need to define some roles. E.g.:

role :app, 'myapphostname'
role :web, 'mywebhostname'

It seems you used "set" instead of "role", but you should confirm this before making the change.

Seems that you've already set up your server with bundle exec cap deploy:setup.

If that's the case you should now run bundle exec cap deploy.
