you just have to know.

After setting up your rails application, you have a default homepage. It is shown, when you call “http://localhost:3000/”. You can change the default homepage in the routes.rb file. Sounds easy. I changed the file and added the following line at the bottom:

map.connect ”, :controller => ‘window’, :action => ‘list’

Quite disappointing: the old start page was still there. After some googling around, I found out what to do. You also have to remove the static index.html in the /public folder.
