I have been using mysql in a new rails application, but now I wanted to give mongoDB a try so I installed mongo mapper and mongoid (to use mongo session). The installation seems to be fine because I can create mongo models. But for some reason rails is still trying to connect to mysql: Can't connect to local MySQL server.
This is horrible, because even if I wasn't using mongo, rails shouldn't be trying to connect to mysql for every request. It's throwing that error even for non-existent urls.
What can I do to debug this? I guess I could try removing the mysql gem from the Gemfile and running bundle install. But I still don't like the fact that it's trying to connect even when I'm not using it. Shouldn't it try to connect 'lazily' (ie: only on demand)?
