指定默认的Rails数据库

Question

I created a new Rails project by typing the following in CMD of Windows 7: rails new simple_cms –d sql , and I got the error:

Invalid value for –database option. Supported for preconfiguration are: mysql, oracle, postgresql, sqlite3, frontbase, ibm_db, sqlserver, jdbcmysql, jdbcsqlite3, jdbcpostgresql, jdbc.

However, if I type rails new simple_cms –d sqlserver , then I look in the gemfile , I see the entry

gem 'sqlite3'

so why does rails disregard my given option for the default database to use (should be Sql Server)?? Isn't this strange?

Answer 1

rails new simple_cms -d sqlserver

Works for me. I think you have some other weird character in place of - (in -d option)
