How can I disable caching for my rails site?
I'm running Passenger (mod_rails) and my site is running in 'development' mode:
'ENV['RAILS_ENV'] ||= 'development'
Any help?
A:
Okay, so I'll answer this question in case anybody else runs into the same problem. Basically, mod_rails was ignoring my 'development' setting that I had set in the environment.rb file. Adding this to my virtualhost configuration for my site fixed it, however:
RailsEnv "development"
See this link for more details.
Hope that helps somebody else!

It wasn't ignoring it. You told rails that you want to set the environment to 'development' if and only if it's not set yet. See Phil's answer.

A:
By default Passenger will set RAILS_ENV to 'production'. The line ENV['RAILS_ENV'] ||= 'development' will only cause the Rails environment to be set to 'development' if it has not already set.
You need to add RailsEnv development to your Apache configuration for the site to make Passenger run Rails in the development environment.
