Hi, I'm attempting to follow this tutorial:
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/ruby-on-rails/rails-database-setup.htm To create a simple RoR app connected to a MySQL database. When I get to the point where I have to run "rake db:create" I get the error "Protocol error - db:migrate". E.g: r...@ubi:/home/greg/dev/library# rake db:create create Protocol error - db:create r...@ubi:/home/greg/dev/library# I have no idea what this means and can find no information after extensive googling. I'll provide as much info about my environment/ setup as I know how to provide... Any help or suggestions as to how I can figure this out? Please......
