gem install activerecord--adapter

I seem to be missing a gem, yet, according to gem list, I seem to have
sufficient gems. It's a bit puzzling in that this script was running and
now just throws this error.

Is this a missing gem? If so, which one? The MySQL gem seems to be
installed.

Did you intend something like this (just a guess)

:adapter => db["mysql"]

1) require 'activerecord' ... Why do you have this underscore in there?
2) Try :adapter => db[:adapter] instead ?

I only briefly googled it, once I knew it wasn't a gems problem, and came
up with:

thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$ ruby 9.rb
mysql
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$ nl 9.rb
1 require 'rubygems'
2 require 'activerecord'
3 require 'feed_tools'
4 require 'yaml'


5 #db = YAML.load_file("database.yml") #how is this different
from ::load ?

6 dbconfig = YAML::load(File.open('database.yml'))
7 foo = (dbconfig["development"]["adapter"])


8 puts foo
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$ nl database.yml
1 development:
2 adapter: mysql
3 # adapter: sqlite3
4 host: 127.0.0.1
5 database: rss2mysql
6 username: ruby
7 password: password #err, don't steal my "secret" password
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/projects/rss$



So, I'm mostly "there", I'm just a bit unfamiliar with the ?hash? symbol,
=>, as well as the :symbol syntax.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
