Application without database.yml

rubyonrails-talk

Hi,

I have created one application. In that application I am not using any database. Whenever I starting rails server it is giving me an error for configuration of database.yml. What should I do for this?

Thanks, Tushar

As far as I concern that rails runs with database.yml

u can use sqlite3 and create an empty database which has no harm on your application

What should I do for this?

Read environment.rb

I agreed that there is no harm to create an empty database. Is there no other way? Thanks, Tushar

It is possible to use Rails without a database. This is what Fernando is referring to:

  # Skip frameworks you're not going to use. To use Rails without a database   # you must remove the Active Record framework.   # config.frameworks -= [ :active_record, :active_resource, :action_mailer ]

Hi, I removed comment of the config.frameworks -=[ :active_record, :active_resource, :action_mailer ]. I removed the database.yml and tried to start the server. I am getting an error "uninitialized constant Rails::Plugin::ActiveRecord (NameError)" I am using rfacebook plugin in this application. Could you give me the solution for this? Thanks, Tushar

uncomment like (if you dont need active record) No need to remove database.yml config.frameworks -= [ :active_record ]

     Now restart the server

That looks like rfacebook is trying to use the database. If it genuinely needs this then you;ll have to setup a database for your app.
