snag with 1.6 installation
snag with 1.6 installation+issue
I'm trying to get Wagn installed, and have hit a snag that I can't find any help on
I run
rake wagn:create
and I get the following error:
rake aborted! Mysql::Error: No database selected: select distinct ct.class_name, c.name, c.key, p.party_type, p.party_id from cardtypes ct join cards c on c.extension_id=ct.id and c.type='Cardtype' join permissions p on p.card_id=c.id and p.task='create' I can't seem to figure this out Any ideas? (sorry if this is a dumb question and there is an obvious thing I am overlooking)
IANAC, but I sounds like it may be a known bug that we're working on a patch for. --John Abbe
Hi Mike,
This is patched in the latest code on github, but we haven't added new quick install files yet. I hope to get those out very soon, but if you'd like to do it yourself, just comment out line 146 of config/wagn_initializer.rb, which reads:
::Cardtype.load_cache unless ['test','cucumber'].member? ENV['RAILS_ENV']
To comment it out, just add a "#" at the beginning of the line and save it. (Or you could just delete the line altogether)
Sorry for the bug!

Thanks! That fixed the error. Unfortunately ...
rake wagn:create
now produces a different error, also database related:
Couldn't drop : #<ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: Incorrect database name '': DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS ``>
already exists
-- create_table("card_files", {:force=>true})
rake aborted!
Mysql::Error: No database selected: SHOW TABLES

It looks like it doesn't know what database name to use, which probably means something is wrong in your config/database.yml file.
Are you doing the "quick start" or the "long haul" installation method? If you're using the long haul method, you may have skipped the step of copying over that file?
Could you post that file here (minus any passwords or private info)?

btw, I may soon change the name of this ticket to something that will make this info easier for others to find.

Yes, I thought that might be the case. I altered the database.yml as per the long haul instructions. After doing so, I get a similar, but slightly different error.

Hmm, looks like a mysql issue. I would try logging into mysql with that username and password and running "create database wagn_development" and seeing if you get that same error.
Judging by this, that charset/collation message may not be relevant to the problem. Someone on that post had the issue because the mysql user had not been created yet.
