I just went through the first demo in the AgileWeb D. with
Rails book, and it seems that a new dependency has broken the demo.
MissingSourceFile in SayController#hello
no such file to load – sqlite3
RAILS_ROOT: /home/kenb/rails-projects/demo
Ahh! You seem to be the first person on this list to run across that
wonderful new feature of Rails 2.0.2! Rails 2.0.2 doesn’t use MySQL by
default, but instead sqlite3.
You can install it by doing something like apt-get install sqlite3 or by
using your favourite package manager.

I just used Synaptic to install package sqlite3 on my Ubuntu Gutsy
Gibbon system, and I now have a sqlite3 command. But that doesn’t
change the behavior of the demo one bit. There is still a sqlite3
file missing.
Interesting. Try gem install sqllite3?

Wondering when I was going to make that typo, it’s sqlite-ruby or
sqlite3-ruby. Those are the gems you want to install.

The #1 reason is that you don’t need to do anything
With SQlite3…
rails myproject
cd myproject
ruby script/generate scaffold project name:string description:text
estimated_hours:decimal
rake db:migrate
ruby script/server
There. You’re done. No creating permissions, users, databases, etc. No
need
to run an extra process (mysql) just to try something out. The database
is a
file, so its portable. I use it almost exclusively for the first phases
of
my projects because of its ease of use and portability. I recommend it
highly and am just thrilled by the fact that it’s the new default.
Some may complain that there aren’t many good GUI tools for SQLite…
but
with migrations, tests, and script/console, that’s not an issue at all.
That’s my .02
I was wondering why Sqlite3 has been chosen as the default for Rails
2.0.2. What does it have over MySQL to warrant such a change?

Thanks Brian.
That’s interesting. I take it you only use it for the early stages of
development and then switch to something like MySQL later?
Are there any changes you have to make to your source code to
accommodate the switch?
Cheers

I spotted a Tk GUI recently too.
Most Rails developers would have been using Sqlite anyway in development
and test modes. Its really fast, and its also very easy to run sqlite in
memory
too.

SQLite Manager 0.2.11 Homepage
by Mrinal Kant
Manage any SQLite database on your computer.
Manage any SQLite database on your computer. An intuitive heirarchical
tree showing database objects. Helpful dialogs to manage tables,
indexes,
views and triggers. You can browse and search the tables, as well as
add,
edit and delete the records. Facility to execute any sql query. A
dropdown menu helps with the sql syntax thus making writing sql easier.
Easy access to common operations through menu, toolbars, buttons and
context-menu. Export tables/views in csv or xml format

I am having sufficient trouble with sqlite3 that I have decided to
revert back to rails 1.2.6 for the time being, and wait for the 2.0.2
install, dependency, and configuration problems to sort themselves
out.
So, let me pose a new question: How do I uninstall Rails 2.0.2?

I’ve actually written a post regarding some help for beginners who just
started using the book with Rails 2.0. The short answer, if you don’t
want to read through my post is to use the command
rails -d mysql depot
Check out the details at
http://woonzai.com/blog/2007/12/18/help-for-rails-beginners-using-the-book-awdwr-and-rails-20/
You can change the adapter in the database.yml from adapter: sqlite to
adapter: mysql and then use mysql on Rails 2.0.2
