rake db:create throws “database does not exist” error with postgresql

Question

I\'m using rails 4.1.5 with postgresql 9.1 under Debian 7, and I\'m not able to create a database in my development environment. When I run

bin/rake db:create
         


        

Answer 1

You might try running this command-

bin/rake db:create RAILS_ENV=development

Or this command-

bin/rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=development
