First time problem

This is the first time I am Running ruby on rails.

When running the "blog" application I got the message "We're sorry, but something went wrong. We've been notified about this issue and we'll take a look at it shortly."

Then I checked the CODE\blog\log\development.log and got this:

Looks like you've installed the SQLite3 adapter for ruby, but you may not have actually installed the actual SQLite3 database engine. That isn't a gem; you'd need to install it using whatever Windows installer is available (sorry I'm not much help there).

If that's the issue and you don't want to install SQLite, you can use a different database that you already have installed (MySQL, MSSQL) as your development database, instead of SQLite3, by editing the database.yml file generated in the config directory of your rails application. In that case you would need to install the adapter for whatever database you choose to use (the adapters are gems, installed via the procedure you already used for the SQLite3 adapters).

Install version 1.2.3. Version 1.2.4 does not work on Windows.

(gem install sqlite3-ruby -v 1.2.3)
