Restart live server for your rails application

When you change any modifications in models or configuration files, then changes will not apply in server some times, in that situation you need to restart the server by connecting your hosting server through telnet. Follow the below process

Login through telnet and enter into the application root path
Ex:# ssh root@example.com
Goto application path
Ex: cd /var/www/example.com
Then run the following commands
# mongrel_rails stop
# mongrel_rails start -d
