Great idea! Never had the idea to put it into a rake task. A friend of mine slightly pimped this snippet, so you can run the rake task from everywhere and on every system (no touch cmd on windows).


require 'fileutils'

namespace :passenger do
  desc "Restart Application"
  task :restart do
    FileUtils.touch "#{RAILS_ROOT}/tmp/restart.txt"
  end
end
