I am new to Ruby on Rails and have been simply trying to upload new  
images to the rhtml files.  
I did so and ran the executable file, making the changes live.  
However, this perhaps disrupted the path name/route and I cannot  
access my site with the original URL.  
Any ideas greatly appreciated.  
Thanks

Is the site returning an error or does the connection timeout. Check  
the files in the application’s log directory for any errors.

Hi,

no it goes to [http://localhost:3001/](http://localhost:3001/) ‘Welcome Aboard You’re Riding The  
Rails’ etc…

I know I’ve down something stupid, but I am very new to all this, used  
to just Mark-up and CSS

Thanks for your reply
