You need to remove the hide class from the #myModal modal, because that's given it a display: none !important CSS rule, that's why you can't see it:

Check with this:

<div id="myModal" class="modal fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
  <div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
        <h3 id="myModalLabel">Modal header</h3>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        <p>One fine body…</p>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">
        <button class="btn" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">Close</button>
        <button class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

And most probably you'll need to wrap your .modal-header within a <div class="modal-dialog" role="document"> and a <div class="modal-content"> to see your it "well".

Answer 2

The modal will disappear immediately after showing. So I delete //= require bootstrap-sprockets in the application.js file and solve this problem. FYI
