Hi Samuel, yes, this tutorial is pretty old. The other one, which suggested here, is not free of charge. If you are up to pay for a book, than I would suggest Pragmatice Bookshelf's books: http://www.pragprog.com/titles/rails3/agile-web-development-with-rails-third-edition (4th edition coming in a month, about Rails3).
Or this is free: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/ and also very good! And do not be afraid from another database servers than mysql, default settings are the best for first ridings! :) good luck, gezope On szept. 1, 19:03, Samuel Jackson <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi People, > > Ultra noob here.
