Spawning multiple workers with unicorn

Question

I am trying to spawn 7 worker threads using unicorn and my settings are as follows

worker_processes 7
timeout 30     
preload_app true

But in the logs, I only see one worker spawning. Is there something that I am missing?

I, [2014-04-27T01:59:02.190520 #47057]  INFO -- : listening on addr=0.0.0.0:9393 fd=7

Answer 1

I was under the assumption that unicorn picks up the config file automatically from the config folder. But I had to pass the config file manually using the -c option. Once I passed in the config file, I could see 7 workers being spawned.
