Reloading routes does not restart the server -- it just re-reads the routes file. > Both of those options are a lot more involved and disruptive than just > changing a symbolic link. > I don't think clicking a button is any more involved or disruptive than changing a symbolic link, but you can make it even easier by simply visiting the /admin/default/reload_routes URL (if you're not logged in to admin at the time, you'll be prompted to login before routes.py is reloaded). > BUT would changing a symbolic link on a running server cause problems? > Where do I find that out? > Probably won't be a problem.
