so i have some json file that grabs the value from config/development.rb
In my development.rb i have this line
config.base_root_url = "XXXXXXsome URLXXXXXXX"
and in my json.jbuilder file at views i have this line
url: Rails.application.config.base_root_url + "views/somesite"
How come, when I change the config.base_root_url value it is not reflected on my nginx hosted domain. but on Localhost , it shows my changes ? i tried restarting my nginx server but its still the same.
Is config/development.rb a file you added? Or do you mean config/environments/development.rb. Your nginx will run the app in production env hence you will need to edit config/environment/production.rb as well.
you have to do changes in config/environments/production.rb file to reflect changes in app running by nginx because it runs you app in production environment.
