here's my suggestion, note that my experience is on windows and linux only, not mac, but none of these steps should be different. This is based on a test app called "tom" and user named "tom"
# create the rails app with the postrges db rails new tom -d postgresql # create a user on your pg environment that has permission to create new databases, # is not a superuser, and cannot create other roles. You'll be prompted for a password to assign createuser -d -R -S -P tom # edit your database.yml file with the new user/password. Should look something like this: development: adapter: postgresql encoding: unicode database: tom_dev pool: 5 username: tom password: blahblah # create the database rake db:create # migrate and seed the database rake db:migrate rake db:seed Have fun! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
