Rails 3可能遇到的问题

1，windows下mysql驱动问题, 不用安装mysql2,而用mysql，具体如下。

#修改Gemfile

#gem 'mysql2'

gem 'mysql'

#运行命令

bundle install

#修改环境变量

将%MYSQL_HOME%\bin\加入PATH。

#修改database.yml

修改adapter使用mysql。

2, 使用jQuery，而不用Prototype。

参见：https://github.com/rails/jquery-ujs

#修改Gemfile

gem 'jquery-rails'

#运行命令

bundle install

#修改environment.rb

require 'openssl'

OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE

#运行命令

rails generate jquery:install

要使用JQuery UI，请使用：rails generate jquery:install --ui
