I am using ruby or rails ubuntu 64 droplet with nginx and unicorn.
By default the rails directory is located at" \home\rails".
How can I change this location to “\home\mytestapp” ?

Check out this tutorial for all the info on how the Ruby on Rails one-click application is built and how to deploy your own application on it:
This is covered in more detail there, but the quick answer is that you need to update the references to the demo app in a number of places:
/etc/unicorn.conf/etc/default/unicorn/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/railsReplace mentions of /home/rails/rails_project with the path to your app: \home\rails\mytestapp
The tutorial you’ve linked to covers none of those 3 at all.
While is /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/rails still valid, the droplet uses Puma now. The documentation is wrong though. It lists /etc/systemd/system/rails/service as the config file to edit when it’s really /etc/systemd/system/rails.service. It also doesn’t mention /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/rails
Hi @alotcloser. A lot has changed with the Rails One-Click since I wrote this originally back in 2016! I’ve passed your feedback about the current docs on to our Marketplace team.
