Hi Fred, thanks for you reply. My database.yml:
development: adapter: mysql encoding: utf8 database: dom pool: 5 username: my_username password: my_password socket: /tmp/mysql.sock (same settings both for test and production environments just for now) if I run ruby script/dbconsole I get this error: Couldn't find database client: mysql, mysql5. Check your $PATH and try again. Also if I run rake db:create it creates a database without any problems, but any rake db:migrate raises an exception: Mysql::Error: query: not connected: CREATE TABLE `schema_migrations` (`version` varchar(255) NOT NULL) ENGINE=InnoDB > Because you're new to rails. I can set up rails and mysql pretty damn > quick but it would probably take me way longer to set up php & mysql > or some java based framework, but that's just to be expected given the > tools I know. The thing is - it seems there is no definite tutorial for ROR+MySQL, I followed one to install ROR, then another to get mysql, then another to install mysql gem and now I am stuck, because it just doesn't work. I am not a unix-master, I don't want to compile some obscure versions of mysql, then move all the files around, compile gems, then remove this, install that...
