Specifying a decimal field precision/scale with scaffold requires 2 steps?
Hi, It appears to me that the command: ruby script/generate scaffold whatever money_field:decimal(10,2) will not generate a valid migration.

"We're sorry, but something went wrong." from RoR app
Hi All, "We''re sorry, but something went wrong." is the message I got when I started up an RoR app in the environment: Rails 2.3.5 Ruby 1.8.6 WinXP-Pro/SP3 Firefox 3.6 MySQL 5.0.37-community-nt Mongrel The app under development was working fine until I (stupidly) thought I needed to upgrade MySQL to 5.1.44.
