Question

I made a very simple rails app on local host and deleted public/index.html and changed the :root route to another page. It worked fine, but when I deployed to heroku, that index.html page shows up “Welcome Aboard, you’re riding ruby on rails”

How can I get rid of that in Heroku? Why is it there?

Answer 1

Did you make sure to remove public/index.html from your git repo that you’re pushing as well?

git rm public/index.html
git add -u
git commit -m "Removed index.html"
