Application without database.yml

Rails
1

Hi,

I have created one application. In that application I am not using any
database.
Whenever I starting rails server it is giving me an error for
configuration of database.yml.
What should I do for this?

Thanks,
Tushar

As far as I concern that rails runs with database.yml

u can use sqlite3 and create an empty database which has no harm on
your application

What should I do for this?

Read environment.rb

I agreed that there is no harm to create an empty database. Is there no
other way?

That’s lame to install the DB software, configure it, and leave it
empty. Read environment.rb and tell your app to not load ActiveRecord.

It is possible to use Rails without a database. This is what Fernando
is referring to:

Skip frameworks you’re not going to use. To use Rails without a

database

you must remove the Active Record framework.

config.frameworks -=

[ :active_record, :active_resource, :action_mailer ]

uncomment like (if you dont need active record) No need to remove
database.yml
config.frameworks -= [ :active_record ]

 Now restart the server

Hi,
I removed comment of the
config.frameworks -=[ :active_record, :active_resource, :action_mailer
].
I removed the database.yml and tried to start the server. I am getting
an error
“uninitialized constant Rails::Plugin::ActiveRecord (NameError)”
I am using rfacebook plugin in this application.
Could you give me the solution for this?
Thanks,

That looks like rfacebook is trying to use the database. If it
genuinely needs this then you;ll have to setup a database for your
app.
