Hi,
I thought I''d use the weekend to get into RoR but got stuck quite
early.
I''m using RoR with MySQL on my gentoo laptop and am following the depot
application from "Agile Web Development with Ruby on Rails".
My MySQL is running and has got the products table in it. The user is
called mysql and does not need a password. The database.yml is adapted
so that it uses that user and also has the right location for the socket
(I also tried with an empty user):
development:
adapter: mysql
database: depot_development
username: mysql
password:
socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
Here is the output of running the generator script:
wei-fieg@nono depot $ ruby script/generate scaffold Product Admin
exists app/controllers/
exists app/helpers/
create app/views/admin
exists test/functional/
dependency model
exists app/models/
exists test/unit/
exists test/fixtures/
create app/models/product.rb
create test/unit/product_test.rb
create test/fixtures/products.yml
uninitialized constant Mysql
and here is the list of my installed gems:
wei-fieg@nono depot $ gem list --local
*** LOCAL GEMS ***

Can anyone point me to some solution?

Strange that the error has a captial ''M'' _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list Rails-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails

I would like to know what''s wrong with my setup. I''ll post it if I find it out. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
this is pure genius, as, so far no-one has been able to answer my exact question, but in one sentence all my problems have vanished, thank you so much, after posting/searching forums for the last 3 weeks(i gathered from the answers i got that loads of ruby users have the same problem), you have solved my problem, i had the exact problem from word go, my article at lighttpd http://forum.lighttpd.net/topic/575#new> I have found a workaround: simply putting the following line into the > file > activerecord-1.13.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/mysql_adapter.rb > solves the problem: > > require ''active_record/vendor/mysql.rb''i agree with you, i would also like to know what is wrong with my Ruby setup as there was a missing connection between ruby and mysql. thanks again -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
anyone know why this works, or why it was a problem in the first place> I have found a workaround: simply putting the following line into the > file > activerecord-1.13.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/mysql_adapter.rb > solves the problem: > > require ''active_record/vendor/mysql.rb'' > > But this is only a hack...
