Beginner's challenge

Hello,

I begun my journey in Ruby on Rails last Saturday and I am having some challenges specifically about the db

Where should I go for the specific error listing and how it may be resolved. I googled and most that I've searched are not helpful.

what challenges? if you didn't change things you are in development environment and you are using sqlite. so run 'rake db:migrate' and it will create your database. if it doesn't check if you installed the gem sqlite3-ruby. if you still got an error, PASTE it, maybe someone could help you.

$ gem install sqlite3-ruby ERROR: While executing gem … (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError) Errno::ETIMEDOUT: Connection timed out - connect(2) (http://gems.rubyforge.o

rg/gems/sqlite3-ruby-1.2.5.gem)

How should I generate a fulltrace according to comment below

C:\>rake rails:update rake aborted! No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb, Rakefile.rb) C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.1/lib/rake.rb:2143:in `raw_load_rakefile ' (See full trace by running task with --trace)

Are you on your project's directory?

Yes, I need to know how to run a full trace

use mysql - i haven't had 1 database issue.

to clarify

when you create your project , ie rails myProject

to modify it to use mysql, do this:

rails myProject -d mysql

That is what I did earlier which I installed the mysql community version. I will get a hold of it when I get home.
