# has the server configuration and 

set :rails_env, 'production' 

could u tell me how you solve this?

Also getting this error.

This means there's Rails environment initialization errors.

I had a similar error a minute ago. In my case I had a migration in the repo that had not been run on the production db, so maybe capistrano had problems migrating. I migrated manually on the server and deploy worked fine after that.
