Don't! Try again. Your efforts we'll be compensated several times with

Well... I used NetBeans as my default RoR IDE until I bought RubyMine. I
tried Aptana, but it's too heavy (oh well, it's an Eclipse based IDE)
and too slow. I strongly suggest that you give NetBeans a try.

RoR supports MySQL perfectly. I have a half dozen RoR applications
running, all with MySQL. It's a killer combination.
But for the development stage (mostly the most earlier stages) SQLLite
works like a charm. It's simply perfect.
Try to install and configure MySQL. Then RoR. Then the mysql gem. Then
read de Rails Guides and documentation.

Nobody... as RoR support for MySQL is still intact and gettin' better
day by day.
The RoR Dev Team simply changed the default database to SQLLite... and
that's it.
