Ruby on Rails 3 Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' on OSX

Question

I have a standard Rails3 environment, RVM 1.2.9, Rails 3.0.5, Ruby 1.9.2p180, MySQL2 Gem 0.2.7, mysql-5.5.10-osx10.6-x86_64

Error I get when running rake db:m

Answer 1

I found that the problem is that I only have a production environment. I do not have a development or test environment.

By adding 'RAILS_ENV=production' to give the command

bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate RAILS_ENV=production

it worked
