This seems to be related to the known issue surrounding mysql connections that came out in the last RC but was fixed in the very latest ActiveRecord. Search the list archives for your error message - threads yesterday went through the fix (which was essentially to update to the new 1.0 release and force dependencies to be updated as well).

. if possible update to the rails latest gems
. if you have the option, update mysql to at least 4.1
. what version of mysql are you using?
. have you looked at previous threads?
Subject: "Problem with mysql"
Posted yesterday.
And there are more threads that talk about this.
. you may want to change the passwords to either the old- or new-style
as a last resort if nothing else works for you. This has been
discussed in a previous thread. I think here,

Re: mysql connection problems
> rake it says: Access denied for user: ''@localhost'' to database ''''tow things that worked for me in the past: 1)instead of granting @localhost, try to grant @127.0.0.1 (bizarre, but worked for me, i just can''t remind the link where i read) 2)if using mysql 5, do check for old/new password style good luck Andre -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
