Are you using Rails 2.0?
If so, provide your scaffold with your model's definition, liike this: ruby script\generate scaffold Product code:integer name:string
Make sure your you destroy your model first.
I posted something related to this here:
Hope it helps
My assumption is that the original poster is trying to follow the Agile Web Development with Rails book which is not compatible with Rails 2.0
My suggestion is to uninstall Rails
gem uninstall rails
then reinstall the specific version that will work with that book
gem install version=1.2.6 rails
Then, recreate the depot application
rails depot
That will allow you to complete the book, afterwhich you can upgrade to Rails 2.0.
Ack… mistake in my commands.
To install Rails 1.2.6, you should do
gem install --version=1.2.6 rails - I forgot the two –

I trying to follow the AWDWR 2nd Edition book and I've seen your suggestion in other place too. I can't see the point though, what is the point on learning an obsolete version of rails when the new one is obviously so different! Does anybody know how to work around this problem with Rails 2.x?
The new version of Rails isn't actually so different from what I can see - although i'm still learning also, so I'm open to correction there...
what the scaffold does now is to generate the view, controller, and model all in one... it also generates a database migration file (in the db folder) which can be edited before performing a rake db:migrate to create the database table with relevant fields... it's not really too complex...
