无法将我的开发环境连接到新导入的postgres数据库

Question

Someone sent me the sql files of a dump database. I imported it through the following command: psql my_dbname < infile.sql

I changed my database.yml file with the following:

development:
  <<: *default
  database: my_dbname

But when I run rails server, I don't have the expected data. Is there something I'm missing ? I think there are some stuff I need to do with roles but I'm not sure.

Thanks :)

Answer 1

Are you done with rake db:create and rake db:migrate before importing the .sql file if not then do the following

rake db:create
rake db:migrate

and then import .sql file

psql my_dbname < infile.sql

Answer 2

You can try:

rake db:create
rake db:migrate
psql -d my_dbname -a -f infile.sql
