Rails - Apr 2006 - Upgrade 1.0 => 1.1.2 Broke My App (environment.rb ?)

Short version:  Do I need to re-run script/generate after doing ''rails
.''  ??
 
My rails app worked fine under ruby 1.8.2 and rails 0.13.   I then upgraded to
rails 1.0
and it still worked fine.  Don''t ask me exactly what I did when I
upgraded rails then, I
don''t remember, exactly.   Yesterday committed the rails app to svn
then I upgraded to
ruby 1.8.4 and tested and the rails app worked fine under ruby 1.8.4 and rails
1.0.
 
Today I upgraded rails by typing ''gem install rails
--include-dependencies''.   I guess
that was the wrong thing to do.  It doesn''t work anymore.
 
I don''t even have a config/boot.rb and the config/environments.rb is
the same 86 line file
as it was originally in November.  So I''ve begun to see I have some
work to do but not yet
figured out what. Oh, and my  rails/thing/rakefile is the same 206 line thing it
was back
in November, too.  If you tell me how to fix it I promise to be good in the
future.  I
think I must have upgraded to 1.0 by just doing the ''gem install
....'' thing and have been
happily banging away ever since.  I am not so happy now.
 
The dev log says:
Your environment.rb uses the old syntax, it may not continue to work in future
releases.
For upgrade instructions please see: http://manuals.rubyonrails.com/read/book/19
  LineItem Columns (0.361000)   SHOW FIELDS FROM line_items
You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it!
The error occured while evaluating nil.primary_key_name
c:/program
files/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.2/lib/active_record/associations/belon
gs_to_association.rb:52:in `foreign_key_
present''.....
 
I figured out to run ''rails .'' and then do a full compare,
adjusting any differences as
needed. That was easier than I feared.  I confess I''ve never run
''rake test'' and don''t
know what it did before but it sure complains now.
 
So now there is NO BUG and the message about environment.rb no longer appears --
but my
app doesn''t come up.  Instead I get the generic rails "Welcome
aboard" page.  How do I
find my app?
 
Do I need to re-run script/generate ??

Heya,

Short answer: No. Just delete the public/index.html file. "rails ."  
will generate this
file as a starting point by default. Your app should be back up and  
running after
deleting the file (of course there could be stuff in your app that  
break in Rails 1.1.2,
like certain plug-ins and libs).

Mostly fixed.  When I did ''rails .'' it confusingly created a
new index.html that was just
one bug too many...
