Correct MySQL configuration for Ruby on Rails Database.yml file

Question

I have this configuration:

development:
  adapter: mysql2
  encoding: utf8
  database: my_db_name
  username: root
  password: my_password
  host: mysql://12         


        

Answer 1

You should separate the host from the port number. You could have something, like:

development:
  adapter: mysql2
  encoding: utf8
  database: my_db_name
  username: root
  password: my_password
  host: 127.0.0.1
  port: 3306
