Greetings:

I am new to ROR and RadRails. All assistance will always be  
appreciated.

My environment:

Windows XP  
Ruby 1.8.6  
Rails 2.2.2  
Aptana Studio, build: 1.2.1.020234  
RadRails 1.1.0.200812081651NGT

I created a new ROR Project.

When I attempted to run db:create --trace for the first time I got the  
following message:

in C:/RailsApp/chbdepot)  
\*\* Invoke db:create (first\_time)  
\*\* Invoke environment (first\_time)  
\*\* Execute environment  
\*\* Execute db:create

RadRails did not create chbdepot\_development.

I then created chbdepot\_development manually and re-ran db:create –  
trace. I got the following message:

> rake db:create --trace  
> (in C:/RailsApp/chbdepot)  
> \*\* Invoke db:create (first\_time)  
> \*\* Invoke environment (first\_time)  
> \*\* Execute environment  
> \*\* Execute db:create  
> chbdepot\_development already exists

This is correct because I created the db manually.

I then ran:

> rake db:migrate --trace  
> (in C:/RailsApp/chbdepot)  
> \*\* Invoke db:migrate (first\_time)  
> \*\* Invoke environment (first\_time)  
> \*\* Execute environment  
> \*\* Execute db:migrate  
> rake aborted!
