Trying to change views of a rails application but changes don't apply

Question

I am trying to change the html.erb files from my application, but when i upload the new version and i check with a browser it's still the old one, i tried different browsers/cleared cache.

Do I need to restart the app? if so, how do i do that?

Answer 1

You say you are "uploading the new version" which suggests that you're talking about a server run in production mode (e.g. not your local development environment). In that case, yes, you likely need to restart your application server. E.g. if you are running with Apache/Passenger, then restart Apache.
