Installing Tracks 1043 fails when “rake migrate” or “rake db_schema_import” is run.

Using ruby 1.8.6 Rails 1.2.5. Win XP Pro

Creation of the tracks1043 database works fine.

Table creations via rake will not succeed.

How to fix?

Thanks,

Ken W.

see trace below:  (same for ‘migrate’ or ‘db_schema_import’)

i’m having this same problem. :(

did you install the mysql bindings for ruby? From the commandline: gem install ruby

sorry, that should be: gem install mysql

I think so. (re: gem install mysql) I have MySQL up and running with my other Rails projects. It runs just fine.

Is there some place where I can check these bindings?

How to find the error?

Thanks,

Ken W.

it could be that the mysql bindings for rails are newer than the rails version included in tracks1043. I’m not sure though. You could try the trunk version of tracks and see if that will work on your setup. It includes are more recent version of rails.

trunk nowadays is very stable and getting closer to being released…

I ran into the same problem today, installing tracks on Mac OS X. After some hunting, it turned out that a change in Digest::SHA1 was the culprit. See this page for an easy fix.

The changes have to be made to:

I am now on Rails 2.0.2.

Using Windoze XP.

Will Tracks run with this setup?

TIA,

Ken W.

Ken Wagner: Tracks comes with it’s own version of Rails which it will use in preference to whatever you have installed. The real issue (when running Tracks 1.043 only - it’s fixed in the trunk and upcoming 1.5 version) is whether you have Ruby 1.8.6 installed. If you do, you’ll need to apply the fix linked to by pwever.

Better still, wait a couple of days for me to upload Tracks 1.5rc1, which has a lot of other goodies included.
