Lately I have been trying various things and I am amazed at what all
the new technology requires from people.
I tried to install a wiki, following what seemed a straight forward
tutorial, and I had to install mysql, search up and down the net to
solve my error problems. Half of it was finding out that you have to
start mysql somehow, before other things work. Luckily I had installed
php for a flash project, so that was not new. I ended up removing
mysql, upgrading php, mysql. Now I can't find the passwords, user names
etc so I can't even use the wiki, if it is still there after
unintalling reinstalling mysql to reset the root password!
Today, I am trying to follow the agile web on rails, which also uses
mysql, and I am back to hunting for ideas on what to do... As far as I
can tell, I followed various fixes for tiger (fix 46, reinstal mysql
gem, old password...) tried to figure out what to put,'root'@'localhost
instead of 'dave'@'localhost', and what about "password:" in .yml,
leave that blank as in the model? Despite my best efforts at
deciphering the advice, terminal hangs on command from page 57
ruby script/generate scaffold Product Admin
I have no idea how to debug this, I just know I am not the only one,
and my difficulty pails compared to some of the post I founds out there
about "deployment" difficulties. I can't make head of tail of the
problem or the fix:
http://groups.google.com/group/rail...2fb9a5?q=database.yml&rnum=3#1c0134aff52fb9a5
Is rails only for web developers and programmers? How much do you need
to know to have a remote chance of trying this program? Just curious
Our programmer uses java to put up pictures on the web in a timed
fashion, and collect responses from subjects over the web. I wanted to
do it with Rails...
