Using MySQL

How do I configure RoR on my iMac (10.5.3) to use mySQL?

TIA,
David

Do you have MySQL installed?

You do that on an app-by-app basis in /config/database.yml–change the
adapter lines to mysql.

on when generating a new you can use app: rails myapp -d mysql

I am in the same boat. I have rails installed, working, and up to
date. I have created my project skeleton and have somewhat of a
program. I also have MySQL installed and have looked for the GUI to
configure the database like the one in the screencast. Learning Rails
is enough without having to learn the SQL commands.

that should really read:

when you’re generating a new rails project you can use: rails myapp -d
