Rails server doesn't see code changes and reload files
<p>I noticed that my rails server doesn't reload controllers, models and probably any other files after I change them. I use Vagrant and Rails API, and I found that some people fix this problem by adding below line to the <code>Vagrantfile</code>.</p>

<pre><code>config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
  vb.customize [ "guestproperty", "set", :id, "/VirtualBox/GuestAdd/VBoxService/--timesync-set-threshold", 5000 ]
end
</code></pre>

<p>It doesn't fix the problem for me. I run out of the ideas what else I can do to solve this problem. I attach files which might be useful for you.</p>

<p>My <code>Gemfile</code> looks like this:</p>

<pre><code>source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'rake', '&lt; 11.0'

<p>I'm sure that I run my server in development mode, because of the beggining of the log</p>
