  1. POLoad Error - Using MySQL with Ruby on Rails
    text
    copied!<p>I have been trying to use SQL with Ruby on Rails for quite sometime now and cannot seem to make it work.</p> <p>I've pretty much given up on SQLite, so my focus is now on MySQL. I have fully installed the program and it works on its own. However I cannot get it to work with Ruby on Rails.</p> <p>Below is the message I get when I start a new project and choose MySQL as the database.</p> <pre><code> C:\rails_projects&gt;rails new first2_app -d mysql create create README.rdoc create Rakefile create config.ru create .gitignore create Gemfile create app create app/assets/images/rails.png create app/assets/javascripts/application.js create app/assets/stylesheets/application.css create app/controllers/application_controller.rb create app/helpers/application_helper.rb create app/views/layouts/application.html.erb create app/mailers/.gitkeep create app/models/.gitkeep create config create config/routes.rb create config/application.rb create config/environment.rb create config/environments create config/environments/development.rb create config/environments/production.rb create config/environments/test.rb create config/initializers create config/initializers/backtrace_silencers.rb create config/initializers/inflections.rb create config/initializers/mime_types.rb create config/initializers/secret_token.rb create config/initializers/session_store.rb create config/initializers/wrap_parameters.rb create config/locales create config/locales/en.yml create config/boot.rb create config/database.yml create db create db/seeds.rb create doc create doc/README_FOR_APP create lib create lib/tasks create lib/tasks/.gitkeep create lib/assets create lib/assets/.gitkeep create log create log/.gitkeep create public create public/404.html create public/422.html create public/500.html create public/favicon.ico create public/index.html create public/robots.txt create script create script/rails create test/fixtures create test/fixtures/.gitkeep create test/functional create test/functional/.gitkeep create test/integration create test/integration/.gitkeep create test/unit create test/unit/.gitkeep create test/performance/browsing_test.rb create test/test_helper.rb create tmp/cache create tmp/cache/assets create vendor/assets/javascripts create vendor/assets/javascripts/.gitkeep create vendor/assets/stylesheets create vendor/assets/stylesheets/.gitkeep create vendor/plugins create vendor/plugins/.gitkeep run bundle install Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/...........
