SailsJS custom configuration file is not loaded

I've been trying to load custom configuration for my application as explained in documentation and here on StackOverflow, but it fails.

I've created a new file in

/config/application.js

With contents:

module.exports.application = {
  name: 'SuperApp'
};

Then in my

/views/layout.ejs

I tried to read the property:

<title><%= sails.config.application.name %></title>

And it fails with error:

Cannot read property 'name' of undefined]
path: '/Users/glfx/Projects/superapp.dev/views/layout.ejs' }

Any ideas how to fix?

This should work. Have you restarted the application after you added the config file? This is loaded during boot and is not reloaded afterward (unlike your template).
