I’m trying to do some changes in the views, but the final result (page  
requests) doesn’t show my changes.

I’ve commented the caches\_page lines, but i still can get my changes,  
what could be the problem?

If you are in production then on first request Rails is going to write  
out  
the page to disk in (by default) your public directory.

You need to go remove that file first before trying to reload it.

That would be my guess anyway.

Any chance that file exists anyway?

i still couldn’t figure out why my pages aren’t getting changed,  
caches\_page is off, and it’s still the same.
