I''m not sure if this is the right place to ask such questions. If not,
my
apologies and please direct me where such questions are handled.
I am new to RoR and have been following the tutorial in Agile Web Developement
with Rails. I have successfully gotten RoR up and running on my Mac (OS X
10.4.6) and created a MySQL database. However, on page 57 of the tutorial, the
command "script/generate scaffold Product Admin" is causing the
following error:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/yaml.rb:133:in `load'': syntax error on line 27,
col 2: `

from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/yaml.rb:133:in `load''

I''m not sure what this error means. If you have any suggestions as to
what I
could do to get rolling on rails I''d appreciate it.

James, Thanks so much for getting back to me. I have never edited that file so I couldn''t imagine there being any whitespace in it. I don''t understand the code in the yaml file and don''t want to erase anything important. Are you certain that the whitespace is the cause of this error? Thanks again, I do appreciate it.
