I've had this problem as well, the issue is that script/ferret_server did not have executable permissions.

I added the following deploy task to handle the permissions:

before "deploy:restart", "correct_ferret_server_permissions"

task :correct_ferret_server_permissions do
  run "chmod a+x #{current_path}/script/ferret_server
end
