I set up a new Ruby on Rails on Ubuntu (nginx + unicorn) droplet. The only thing I did was change the html in the default home page (/home/rails/app/views/home/index.html.erb).
Now when I load and reload the home page at http://104.131.230.147/ it switches between the original home page and the new one. I have checked with others to see if the behavior is the same for them and it is.
I’ve tried rake tmp:cache:clear rake assets:clean
What other options are there?

I have this same problem with Django+Ubuntu. I’m thankful that at least restarting gunicorn gets a temporary fix. I can’t seem to find any solution to this and I’m amazed that more people don’t have this problem.
Where is the caching coming from? Also, where is this “config.action_controller.perform_caching = false” change made?
I tried the suggestions here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2462889/ruby-on-rails-clear-a-cached-page
Does anyone have experience with creating a droplet using this image? I am wondering if the image is broken.
Would it be better to set up a rails server starting with a straight Ubuntu 14.x Linux Distro image?
Are you restarting the unicorn server after changing the file? Run:
service unicorn restart
Also make sure that a copy of the page isn’t being cached in /home/rails/public/
