“pragdave”, et. al. – is there a corresponding update to “Agile Web
Development with Rails” in the works? Those gerbils must be chomping at
the bit to build me a copy. :slight_smile:

It would be good to have wiki pages or Hieraki books covering

  • changes in 1.0 relative to the book

  • things added since the book was published

The problem in connecting is not in the AR adapter (I have checked
the parameters being passed in to the real_connect call) - it

Yes; I did this troubleshooting earlier today.
See http://dev.rubyonrails.org/changeset/3260

Looking harder at this, it is clear that the problem is not with
the driver in its original form (version 0.2.6) from
Ruby/MySQL
but with the patch applied to it to make it work with MySQL 4.1.1
and above.

The patch is not linked from the english version of the page:
http://tmtm.org/ruby/mysql/ruby_mysql4.patch
Fixes have been submitted upstream.

So… it looks as if this patch was never tested with MySQL 4.0.
Given the elementary nature of the errors, the whole patch needs
very careful inspection.

Indeed. Your keen eye is welcome.

Best,
