Hi All,

I’m new to this and having a hard time getting a ruby on rails app to  
work. The problem seems to be realted to sqlite3 but as far as I know  
sqlite3 is working properly on its own. You can check out my error  
messages at [http://129.173.68.245](http://129.173.68.245)

Any advice on what might be causing this problem is greatly  
appreciated.

S.

Looks to me like the Ruby driver for sqlite3 isn’t installed, or at  
least isn’t in the path where Ruby can find it. You might want to make  
sure you have the gem installed. Try a “gem list” to double check.
