Deploying an existing Rails app to AWS Elastic Beanstalk

Question

I'm new to Rails and I'm trying to deploy an existing Rails app to AWS Elastic Beanstalk. But all I'm getting is just the "Congralutions Page" (FYI: I'm able to run the app on "localhost:3000" using "rails server" )

I followed the instructions indicated in: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/create_deploy_Ruby_rails.html

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Here's what I did:

# cd /var/www/myapp
# bundle update
# bundle install
# git init 
# git add .
# git commit -m "Initial commit"
# eb init
 // .....configuration
 // ..
# eb start
# git add .gitignore && git commit -m "Ignore .elasticbeanstalk from Git"
# git aws.push
# eb status --verbose

Answer 1

I found out what was happening. It was a "git" problem.

It is a similar problem indicated in the following post: deploying to heroku -- can't get rid of the "welcome to rails" default page Except it wass for Heroku.

Anyway, This is what I did to solve it:

git rm public/index.html
git commit -m "Removed public/index.html"
git aws.push
