Rails - Jul 2006 - Error: Before updating scaffolding from new DB schema, try..

Hi, I''m going through the Depot tutorial in the book "Agile Web 
Development with Rails" and I can''t even get past the very first
step.
I''m getting the following error:

"Before updating scaffolding from new DB schema, try creating a table 
for your model (Product)"

when I try to run "ruby script/generate scaffold Product Admin.

I have a table called "products" created in MySQL database 
depot_development and so it''s not a name mismatch problem.  I
google''d a
around and found that people who ran into this problem eventually 
"fixed" it by not using a MySQL password.  So I removed my MySQL user 
password and the scaffold command worked.  Is there a correct way to fix 
this problem?  I don''t want to have an empty password for my sql 
account.  Thanks.

I''m running ubuntu 6.06, ruby 1.8.4, rails 1.1.4, gems 0.9.0 if that 
matters.
