OK, I’m diving into new things - a .net programmer and windows user
trying to develop in Rails on my Mac. Initial setup was easy, and I had
things working and was thrilled with myself. Then I shut down. Next
time I booted up, mysql was acting all kinds of funny. I finally got
that working again (I think it mostly had to do with me not having the
right path, I unfortunately didn’t figure that out until trying a
million other things). After getting mysql working, I tried to run my
tests, and I got a message about mysql not supporting my version of
authentication. Strange because I did not have this problem after the
initial install. But, I found info about using the OLD_PASSWORD command
and stopped getting that error. NOW, any time I try to connect to mysql
from ruby/rails (either running tests, or running a rails page that hits
the DB) it just hangs forever and does nothing. If I stop the browser
and refresh, I see this message:
NoMethodError in Organize#index
You have a nil object when you didn’t expect it!
The error occured while evaluating nil.each_hash
