Can't get out of development mode

Up until a few days ago everything was fine, production was humming along in production mode without a problem, but then we did a push (using deprec) and now production won't go back into production mode, but insists on being in development mode. We've tried changing the environment.rb to

ENV['RAILS_ENV'] ||= 'production'

but it still won't work.

Our last push included acts_as_ferret, and the addition of an administration system using ActiveScaffold, but no changes to the routes, or any other config file that I'm aware of.

Unfortunately I'm not a Linux sys admin so I don't know much about configuring Apache or Mongrels (we're running Apache 2 and two Mongrels) but they were running fine in production before this push.

Does anyone have any idea of how to get us back into production mode, or even a hint as to what the hell is wrong.

TIA Dale

If you're using mongrel cluster then the mongrel_cluster.yml file can set the environment. Have you checked that?

Check your mongrel cluster file. The mode might be set as development in it.

Thanks for the suggestions, turns out that for some reason the mongrel clusters weren't starting correctly (no idea why) but easily fixed.
