I have built an application that I have been testing locally. I was experimenting with deploying it and switching to different "environments". It seems that locally the only way I can change the environment and actually have it reflect is by changing the boot.rb file:: .. .. ENV['RAILS_ENV'] ||= 'production' Rails::Initializer.run(:set_load_path) .. ..
I've tried uncommenting that same EVN['.... code in the environment.rb file but it doesn't actually switch the environment. it still uses development.
I've even tried the "ruby script/server --environment=production" when starting the server and that doesn't work.
This concerns me for actual deployment time.
Has anyone experienced this? What more can I do to look into this or fix it?
Thanks.
