Model class Old/user.rb

class Old::User < ActiveRecord::Base
  establish_connection "old_database"

  # Because table name is lowercase
  def self.table_name() 
    "user"
  end
end

database.yml

old_database:
  adapter: mysql
  database: old_database
  username: root
  password: 
  socket: /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock

Answer 1

The latest MySQL gem (=>0.3.2) needs an additional gem to connect -- it's been architected just like the MSSQL-Server gem was in previous versions of Rails.

You also probably want to use the mysql2 (note the "2") gem
