development.log not logging after deleting file

Question

I deleted the contents of the development.log file on my server because it was getting big. Then after it was empty, I noticed that it stopped logging entirely. So I deleted the file completely and it still continued not to log. Then I remade the file manually and still no luck. Any idea what's going on?

Try restarting your rails application server. Looks like something you did broke the pipe between the application and the log.
