Hi
I am a new fedora user and i am installing ROR on my machine. but when i
try to enter the following command, it shows the following errors.
can any one please tell me how can i solve this problem.
[smehsan@localhost proone]$ rake db:create
#<Mysql2::Error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (13 "Permission denied")>
Couldn't create database for {"adapter"=>"mysql2", "encoding"=>"utf8",
"pool"=>5, "username"=>"root", "password"=>nil,
"socket"=>"/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock",
"database"=>"proone_development"}, {:charset=>"utf8",
:collation=>"utf8_unicode_ci"}
(If you set the charset manually, make sure you have a matching
collation)

That says you are trying to connect as user root with no password. Is
that what you intended? If not have you got the correct user and pwd
in config/database.yml?
Please remember to quote the previous message when replying, otherwise
no-one knows what you are referring to. This is a mailing list not a
forum, though you may be accessing it via a forum-like interface.
Thanks.
It is in the config folder in your rails application.
Since you did not know that I suggest that you work right through a
good tutorial such as railstutorial.org (which is free to use online).
That will show you the basics of rails.
As I thought, you have specified root and no password as the default,
and used that for development. I suggest working through the
tutorial, it will save you a lot of time.
Yes, in there you have specified user root with no password, which I
presume is not what you intended.
To fix it you must use a valid user/pwd for your mysql server.
