Undefined method `model' for ContactController:Class

Rails
1

Hi ,

I’m getting “undefined method `model’ for ContactController:Class”
Basically this is my first RoR application.
Can you please somebody help to resolve this.
Steps I have followed,
1)ruby script/generate model contact
2)ruby script/generate controller contact
3) vim app/controllers/contact_controller.rb
class ContactController < ApplicationController
model :contact
scaffold :contact
end
4)ruby script/server -p 9090

Actually I need to create/select/update table thru RoR.

Advance Thanks,
Sankar.

`scaffold’ for ContactController:Class”

prepare small application ?

Sounds like you’re trying to do an out of date tutorial. You will
probably save yourself some frustration by picking a more up to date
one.

sorry i didn’t read carefully enough.

try this:
rails project
cd project
script/generate scaffold contact name:string street:string
mail:string
nano config/database.yml
rake db:migrate
script/server
firefox http://localhost:3000/contacts/new

hope this helps.

btw: the tutorial you are following seems outdated (pre rails 2.0)
