I'm a newbie trying to follow the ONLamp RoR tutorial at http:// www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html?page=1
Originally, I forgot to install the MySQL driver. It took a while to get a driver installed using gem, but eventually I got mysql-2.7 driver installed after downloading some ruby dev headers and mysql client library.
Now, when I try and point the browser to controller with scaffold:<cont_name> I get the following error message:
"RuntimeError in RecipeController#new Mysql not loaded"
The development.log file reads: "RuntimeError (Mysql not loaded): /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.1/lib/active_record/ connection_adapters/mysql_adapter.rb:7:in `define_all_hashes_method!' ... ..."
Sorry if I'm not explaining this well ... very new at it. I was able to successfully connect to the mysql server outside of rails and create the db & recipe table (per tutorial). Can't seem to get rails to connect, though.
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm running on Ubuntu 6.10.
