First Day issue

I'll start off saying I don't know much at all about RoR...today is my first day attempting.

I have been going through this tutorial (but I'm doing it on linux)

and get this when i try to view the /recipe/new page listed:

NameError in RecipeController#new

uninitialized constant Mysql

RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/.. Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace

This error occured while loading the following files:    active_record/mysql.rb

Request

Parameters: None

Show session dump

I don't know which distro you're using, but there should my a package to provide MySQL bindings to Ruby. That's probably what is missing in your setup.

# /my/be/ makes my previous message more readable:

apt-get install libdbd-mysql-ruby1.8

Fixed it! (well now I get access denied but thats an issue in my .yml file I'm sure)

Thanks alot.
