Rails + Sidekiq: Sidekiq running in wrong environment

Question

I have a Rails 3 app that I deploy using Capistrano. I recently added Sidekiq. It works fine in my development. I'm hosting both `staging` and `preview` on the same server and it's preview that is not functioning properly. When I trigger the worker on preview it goes to staging and hits the staging database.

end

Sidekiq.configure_client do |config|
  config.redis = { url:       'redis://localhost:6379/0',
                   namespace: "sidekiq_#{Rails.application.class.parent_name}_#{Rails.env}".downcase }
end
```
