Question

For some reason, the js files under app/asset/javascripts folder are no longer being requested by the rails application.

I have enabled assets in application.rb

I have these lines in application.js:

//= require_self
//= require_tree .

with proper use of the blank lines.

And I have included this line in my application.html.erb file:

<%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
<%= csrf_meta_tag %>

I have application.js, jquery.js, jquery-ui.js, prototype.js and some other js files in the javascripts folder.
But when I access those js files in Firefox firebug, the content are different from that in the folder. I keep getting the message: Served asset /xxx.js - 304 Not Modified (0ms).

It is so frustrating and I really need some help.
Thank you in advance!

I am using

Rails version: 3.2.7

Ruby version: ruby 1.9.3p194

gem version: 1.8.24

Thin server

UPDATE:
I have used rake assets:clean and this never happened again!

Probably this is beacuse to you have this precompiled files in public dir

try adding this to development.rb

  config.serve_static_assets = false
