使用ROR应用程序设置mysql数据库时出现ArgumentError

Question

I have looked up for several issues on Stack overflow before, couldn't identify any of those much, with my query . I want to set up a mysql database with my RoR App , but the following errors occur :-

=> Booting WEBrick

ruby -v :-> ruby 1.8.7

Also my database.yml file :->

development:
  adapter: mysql
  database: world_data_dev
  username:root
  host: local_host
  port: 3000
  pool: 5
  timeout: 5000


# Warning: The database defined as "test" will be erased and
# re-generated from your development database when you run "rake".
# Do not set this db to the same as development or production.
test:
  adapter: mysql
  database: world_data_test
  username:root
  host: localhost
  port: 3000
  pool: 5
  timeout: 5000

production:
  adapter: mysql
  database: world_data_prod
  username:root
  host: localhost
  port: 3000
  pool: 5
  timeout: 5000

Thanks!

Answer 1

In your database.yml file give the space after username:

development:
  adapter: mysql
  database: world_data_dev
  username: root
  host: local_host
  port: 3000
  pool: 5
  timeout: 5000
