When I deploying a new rails 5.2.0 app to production machine, which has been the other rails 5.2.0 app there, I encounter a serious problem:
ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor::InvalidMessage: ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor::InvalidMessage
ArgumentError: invalid base64
/var/www/blogApp/shared/bundle/ruby/2.4.0/gems/activesupport-5.2.0/lib/active_support/core_ext/module/delegation.rb:271:in `method_missing'
/var/www/blogApp/shared/bundle/ruby/2.4.0/gems/railties-5.2.0/lib/rails/application.rb:433:in `secret_key_base'
Below are a part of debug info when I use capistrano to deploying a rails 5.2.0 app:

The deploy term is that using capistrano to push your rails app from local and development environment machine to remote and production machine.
The run term is that perform an app at production machine.
Before doing solution steps, make sure you have done following:
Capfilerequire 'capistrano/rails'
require 'capistrano/passenger'
require "capistrano/scm/git"
require "capistrano/rvm"
require "capistrano/bundler"
require "capistrano/rails/assets"
Gemfile and then execute command:bundle install
group :development do
gem 'capistrano'
gem 'capistrano-passenger'
gem 'capistrano-rails'
gem 'capistrano-bundler'
gem 'capistrano-rvm'
gem 'highline'
end
gem 'dotenv-rails'
3. Add somethings to .gitignore
/config/master.key
/config/credentials.yml.enc
/.env
/.DS_store
/config/database.yml
Make sure deploy account has permission to create directories at /var/www/ directory,which is usually to be create ones for rails apps, of rails remote production machine.
Ensure have installed yarn software, which will be used to precomile assets for rails 5.2.0, at remote production machine and can be used by deploy account.
Add dotenv gem to Gemfile and bundle install at local machine
Create a file named: .env at home directory of the rails app. Ensure
SECRET_KEY_BASE = 'YOU_SECRET_KEY_BASE'
is in the file and replace YOU_SECRET_KEY_BASE value to content when you type command: EDITOR=vim rails credentials:edit on terminal screen hint in local machine.
Add this line: /.env to file: .gitigore inside the rails app
Add this line:
config.require_master_key = true
to scope of Rails.application.configure do-block in config/environments/production.rb;
append :linked_files, "config/database.yml", "config/credentials.yml.enc", "config/master.key", ".env"
to config/deploy.rb. Also put files: master.key and credentials.yml.enc to shared/config directory of the rails app remote production. Besides, put the file: .env to shared directory of the rails app remote production.
set :rvm_custom_path, '/usr/local/rvm'
set :rvm_ruby_version, '[email protected]'
set :default_env, { path: "/usr/share/rvm/rubies/ruby-2.4.2/bin/ruby:$PATH" }
to config/deploy.rb. You can change numbers of versions according to you own production machine.
bundle exec cap production deploy --trace at local machine
