I am New to Ruby..Please Help me ON start

Hello All…

I am new to ruby…

I have installed ruby 1.8.6 in my XP machine.

Installed by Ruby one-click installer. And then i have installed Apache2
Webserver.

Then tried with a testProgram in Run-> cmd → rails testProgram

Then i have completed ruby script/server on cmd

Then after that i took http://127.0.0.1:3000/ in my browser and i got
the default page.

It contains the details like

      "Welcome Abroad"
      About your application Environment with a link.

Once i click on that I got Like "MissingSourceFile in Rails/…

no such file to load – sqlite3

RAILS_ROOT: C:/Ruby/testProgram

I need to use the mysql as database.

The mysql server is therre in another machine in my LAN. I dont know how
to connect to that…

And also I am so srry to ask this simple doubt but im new to thias ruby.

I want to to knw how can i start by simply print or start with ruby page
by a message “Welcome to RUBY”. Where can i start with? How??

Hope some one help me out

hi

your rails app folder, go to config/database.yml

in datebase.yml

you will find like this

development:
adapter: mysql
database: test
username: root
password: password
host: localhost
socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

in host your that system ip like

adapter: mysql
database: test
username: root
password: password
host: 10.0.1.28
socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

Thanks for ur reply…

In database.yml i can find this

SQLite version 3.x

gem install sqlite3-ruby (not necessary on OS X Leopard)

development:
adapter: sqlite3
database: db/development.sqlite3
pool: 5
timeout: 5000

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: sqlite3
database: db/test.sqlite3
pool: 5
timeout: 5000

production:
adapter: sqlite3
database: db/production.sqlite3
pool: 5
timeout: 5000

I didnt install Mysql in my PC…

If you will not use any database, you can cancel active_record.
Modify config/environment.rb
Uncomment this line:

config.frameworks -= [ :active_record, :active_resource,

:action_mailer ]

err … Did you generated any model yet?
And SQLite is not same as MySQL, they are different.
Run cmd and type: gem i sqlite3-ruby
And comment config.frameworks -= [ :active_record, :active_resource,
:action_mailer ]
And, restart your server and try again

Thanks Air…

How can i do that?? How can i replace as my database.yml??

And billy…

Wat u mean by generating model?

i didn’t do anything yet…

Just reached in the start up screen telling the message “Welcome abroad”

no need mysql in your system.

you have to replace database.yml with my database.yml file.

I think no need to change socket, just delete it :slight_smile:

And again…

I have created another controller by taking CMD → ruby script/generate
controller test

Then i edit the test_controller under app/controller

class TestController < ApplicationController
def index
render_text “Test The Message”
end
end

But once i test it with http://127.0.0.1:3000/test/

I got an error message :

NoMethodError in TestController#index
undefined method `render_text’ for #TestController:0x465f078
RAILS_ROOT: C:/Ruby/TestOne

app/controllers/test_controller.rb:3:in `index’
