Rails - Dec 2008 - Deploying Radiant - why can't anything ever just work?

So I have been tinkering with Rails all week - I''m a designer, not a
developer, but I''m looking to expand my knowledge. I created an
instance
of Radiant, the cms, and am looking to fiddle with it and then try
putting it on a server.

I have the ''radiant project'' created here:
RAILS_ROOT: /Users/rmorourk/Sites/radiant_test

When I use locomotive to point this directory at port 3004, I get the
following error on viewing:

Could not find table ''config''

Although the config table is definitely there.

I used SQLite 3 as the database. I''m assuming, sense I am trying to
access it locally, that it is looking at the development database - my
config/database.yml file looks like this:

development:
  adapter: sqlite3
  database: db/development.sqlite3.db

What am I doing wrong here? Do I have to activate the sqlite somehow?
Any advise would be appreciated.

Locomotive?  Are you using Tiger?  ''Cause if you''re using
Leopard,
then I would recommend using the Rails installation that''s included
with the OS.

Don''t assume.  Check.  Select the app in Locomotive, choose Get Info,
and see what it says the run mode is -- development, production, or
test.  It probably *should* be development, but make sure that it
actually *is*.

(If you''re not using Locomotive, this is generally controlled by your
RAILS_ENV environment variable.  Also, Locomotive calls them "run
modes", but all other Rails literature calls them environments.)

I don''t know if that''s right, since I''ve not used
SQLite.  But the
information I came across on the Web suggests that "database:" should
perhaps be "dbfile:".  Don''t take my word for that, though;
check with
someone more knowledgeable about using SQLite with Rails.

I''m not familiar with Radiant, but you might try:

$ rake db:migrate

at the command prompt, unless the installation instructions said something
about creating and initializing the database.

The "rake db:migrate" command will create the database from scratch.

Sorry for the trouble you''re experiencing.  Try the Radiant mailing
list
- you''re likely to get good help there also.  That said, as a general 
guideline, you should never really need to run in development (that part 
is for developing the CMS itself, not the content).  You should run in 
production.

Also, when you do that, make sure you follow the instructions over at 
the site.

The documentation is a bit all over the place right now, but is being 
reorganized.  Take a look at: http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Summer_Reboot 
for bits of documentation that will help.

Also, specifically see: 
http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Create_your_first_Radiant_project (with 
video, I believe) and then see: http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Getting_Started

Make sure that you''re on Ruby 1.8.6 - there are still a few kinks with 
Ruby 1.8.7.

Cheers,
Mohit.
