I'm new to RoR so please forgive this trivial question. I'm working
through Timothy Fisher's Ruby on Rails Bible, I have the components up
and running. I have created the contactlist database and within it the
contacts table. I then follow the instructions on page 81:
ruby script/console
my_contact = Contact.new
It's supposed to respond with a message describing the attributes of
the Contact class, but instead it tells me that it cannot find the
contacts_development database. It is there, as shown by the mysql
console app. What am I doing wrong? Should I have created the database
in some particular directory rather than just leave it to mySQL to
figure out where to place it?
Thanks in advance,
Arthur
