read Passengerfile.json on restart app

[Philip Scigala]

Hello!

Im currently testing Passenger for deploying Meteor application on AWS.

Deployment works!

Updating the application works like its is described from the tutorial with this script:

https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/deploy/standalone/automating_app_updates/meteor/

What is not working that changes made in "Passengerfile.json" are handled when i restart the application with this script.

(sudo passenger-config restart-app --ignore-app-not-running --ignore-passenger-not-running /var/www/myapp/bundle)

Any suggestions?

I have to stop passenger and boot it again for it to work

That is correct, options in Passengerfile.json can be server-wide (rather than application specific) so a Passenger restart is needed to process changes in that file (hot reloading is not supported).
