Rename hello_world rails app

Hi,

I just ftp'd an app I've been working on up into my webapps/app-name directory. However the website is still using the default 'hello_world' rails app in that directory (which was created from the control panel). I cannot work out how to get nginx to use the app I uploaded rather than the 'hello_world' default. If I delete hello_world and point nginx/conf/nginx.conf server root to my new app I still get 404's. If I simply rename my app hello_world I get the error: 'Ruby (Rack) application could not be started'

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers, Mike

0	Pointing `nginx.conf` to the new application is the correct method. If you can edit your question and include how you are doing the configuration, we may be able to locate the issue. permanent link answered 10 Jul '12, 00:05 ryans ♦♦ 5.0k●9●33●60 accept rate: 43%

0	Found the answer - run command './bin/restart' once nginx.conf settings are changed in order for them to take effect! permanent link answered 10 Jul '12, 07:26 Michael Spel... 11●2●3 accept rate: 0%
