No route matches [GET] “/public/index.html”

Even after setting config.assets.enabled = true nothing changes.

    The public directory is your root directory from the website perspective. For instance:

    /path_to_rails/public/index.html = http://localhost:3000/index.html
    /path_to_rails/public/subdir/home.html = http://localhost:3000/subdir/home.html
    

    This assumes you are running your local dev server at http://localhost:3000
