step 1: Have a look in to this link, if it doesn’t happen better switch over to step 2. > **[rails 20 scaffold](http://leonardoborges.com/writings/2007/12/21/rails-20-scaffold/)** > > Following the Rails 2.0 hype, I've been playing around with it and decided to share a first impression: Scaffolding is gone! > But wait, before you knock your head against the wall, let me tell you something: I lied :) > Scaffolding is not really gone.... step 2: Try the same with rails 1.2.3, Dynamic scaffolding is no longer available in rails 2.0.

Simply installing the 1.2.6 gem doesn’t magically make your rails command use 1.2.6, if you have 2.x installed. It’ll always use the latest version unless you specify otherwise. What you need to do is issue the following command: ``` rails _1.2.6_ depot ``` That should make it so you can follow the tutorials without any issues related to changes from 2.x that might not be compatible with the book you’re reading from. You also need to make sure you do this without overwriting your existing depot 2.x rails app – I’m not sure what’d happen if you did so (it might work but it might not). To avoid any headaches I’d delete your depot project, and regenerate the 1.2.6 project from scratch. Nicholas On May 9, 5:01 am, Vijay R.
