Basically, I have a ruby site which I need to make some amends on. Simple ones like changing title tags on pages. The site is on a dedicated server but I cannot work out how to connect up to the ruby site and start editing the files.
I have ruby installed but looking round I just get completely lost. Does anyone just have a simple step by step for connecting and getting the files or know of somewhere with this?
Edit: I can connect to the server with filezilla but if I edit a file and copy back to the server it does not seem to take effect?
You probably need to overrite
PROJECTDIR/tmp/restart.txt
you can open tmp/restart.txt on your FTP server via any text editor and press Ctrl+S (save it), so file will be touched and server will be restarted
or if you have ssh access run
touch tmp/restart.txt from your rails app root
