i am running virtual rails on linux mint.  i created a controller in
my commnad prompt.  then i opened up the public folder and delted
index.html .. after this I opened up the rails application i created
and went to config / routes.rb.  I am trying to re route or add a new
route to the default page.  I have pasted the code below.

I tried editing the line
map.root :controller => "welcome" and i changed welcome to "site"
 but it didnt re route......Can someone please tell me which line to
edit and what to put in the line?


ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map|
  # The priority is based upon order of creation: first created ->
highest priority.

  # Sample of regular route:
  #   map.connect 'products/:id', :controller => 'catalog', :action =>
'view'
  # Keep in mind you can assign values other than :controller
and :action

  # Sample of named route:
  #   map.purchase 'products/:id/purchase', :controller =>
'catalog', :action => 'purchase'
  # This route can be invoked with purchase_url(:id => product.id)

  # Sample resource route (maps HTTP verbs to controller actions
automatically):
  #   map.resources :products

  # Sample resource route with options:
  #   map.resources :products, :member => { :short => :get, :toggle
=> :post }, :collection => { :sold => :get }

  # Sample resource route with sub-resources:
  #   map.resources :products, :has_many =>
[ :comments, :sales ], :has_one => :seller

  # Sample resource route with more complex sub-resources
  #   map.resources :products do |products|
  #     products.resources :comments
  #     products.resources :sales, :collection => { :recent => :get }
  #   end

  # Sample resource route within a namespace:
  #   map.namespace :admin do |admin|
  #     # Directs /admin/products/* to Admin::ProductsController (app/
controllers/admin/products_controller.rb)
  #     admin.resources :products
  #   end

  # You can have the root of your site routed with map.root -- just
remember to delete public/index.html.
   map.root :controller => "welcome"

  # See how all your routes lay out with "rake routes"

  # Install the default routes as the lowest priority.
  # Note: These default routes make all actions in every controller
accessible via GET requests. You should
  # consider removing or commenting them out if you're using named
routes and resources.
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format'
end
