I ran into a similar problem, but I was trying to specify the production environment with the parameter –environment='production' like we do for mongrel/webrick…
for rake the env. should specify using RAILS_ENV

in my bash profile on my deployment servers, I write an alias like this
alias rk="RAILS_ENV=production rake"

so that I can type
rk db:migrate

or any rake tasks i need. Do this for script console too if you need it. Saves me alot of headaches
