Hi,
I wanna write a little blog in ruby so I started with creating a mysql-db with blog_test, blog_development, blog_production. Then I created a new rails project with "rails blog". I create, in the folder db, a file create.sql with this content:

drop table if exists entrys;

create table entrys (
id int not null auto_increment,
headline varchar(100) not null,
news text not null,
primary key (id)
);

then I did:
mysql blog_development <db/create.sql
which works without problems. After that I changed /config/database.yml:


I think generally, you'll want to use the migrations, as I think that works some magic on config files which the scaffold command may be looking for. For more info on migrations, see http://www.google.com/search?q=ruby+on+rails+migrations
