I ran script/generate model Book and I got:
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/yaml.rb:133:in load': syntax error on line 23, col 2: socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’ (ArgumentError)

then I realized that I had mistakenly had an entry password:secret
instead of password: secret in database.yml.
Is database.yaml so sensitive to a space character? I couldn’t ascertain
it by looking at YAML Reference Card.
