Rails - Mar 2006 - Apache/FCGI Rails - is apache restart required on DB change?

Hi all,

wondering when I need to restart apache. I''m setting up a rails system 
for the first time, and it seems to be caching my database 
configuration, unless I restart apache.

Is there any way out of this? Is there a way to do this without 
restarting apache?

Thanks in advance!

I *think* your environment and db details are cached even in dev mode, so you
would either need to restart apache or at least kill all the dispatch.fcgi
processes.

There are some good pointers here:

...pointers that I would have done well to have read before the last 2 months on
my project :)
