Help with creating Scaffold

Rails
1

Hello there!

I am a Ruby on Rails newbie… Am currently reading the book, “Agile
Web D. with Rails”, and am on page 57.

When I typed “ruby script/generate scaffold Product Admin”, I got the
following error (Please note that this is the second time I ran
this command and that’s why one will see the “identical” status marker):

Raven:/Developer/DevResources/Ruby/RailsApps/depot untz$ ruby script/
generate scaffold Product Admin
exists app/controllers/
exists app/helpers/
exists app/views/admin
exists test/functional/
dependency model
exists app/models/
exists test/unit/
exists test/fixtures/
identical app/models/product.rb
identical test/unit/product_test.rb
identical test/fixtures/products.yml
#28000Access denied for user ‘root’@‘localhost’ (using password: NO)
Raven:/Developer/DevResources/Ruby/RailsApps/depot untz$

I am using ruby 1.8.3 and rails 0.14.3 on Mac OS X Tiger…

Many, many thanks!

Kindest regards,

You get this when MySQL needs a password to connect to the database.
Check your config/database.yml file and make sure you’ve put the correct
password in there

You have the same username with a different password for the production
db. Create another valid user for production with a different pwd. I
think it’ll solve the problem.

Here’s the contents of the database.yml file:

development:
adapter: mysql
database: depot_development
socket: /tmp/mysql.sock
username: untz
password: shabu

Warning: The database defined as ‘test’ will be erased and

re-generated from your development database when you run ‘rake’.

Do not set this db to the same as development or production.

test:
adapter: mysql
database: depot_test
socket: /tmp/mysql.sock
username: untz
password: shabu

production:
adapter: mysql
database: depot_production
socket: /tmp/mysql.sock
username: untz
password: wibble
