Hi All,

I have created a schema named “CFG” in the postgreSQL database named  
“EIS1”.

When run the rake command to migrate. The scripts are always run in the  
“Public” schema in database “EIS1”.

How do I make it run under “CFG” schema in “EIS1”.

Appreciate your help !!!

Thanks,  
John

I suspect you can’t. I’m assuming you used the postgresql ‘CREATE  
SCHEMA’ command. I don’t think rails can access those things.

robbyonrails knows more about postgres and rails together than I do.
