I have been trying to run the rake db:migrate command but it ain't working. I uninstalled and installed the gem but no luck. I read somewhere the o.9 wasn't stable and that 0.8.7 was ok. I tried it but I got an error also..
For now the error is
Fayimora-Femi-Baloguns-MacBook-Pro:sample_app fayimora$ bundle exec rake db:migrate

Please any help would be apprecible. Been having a real hard time learning rails.
The bug with Rake 0.9.2 is fixed. Try using Rake 0.9.2 by adding it to your Gemfile and run
bundle update rake.
I wouldn't use Rails 3.1 RCs besides experimenting or checking your gems for compatibility. Rails 3.0.9 is pretty stable and widely supported.
Edit: https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/1197
The problem is related to a gem not being compatible with Rails 3.1. Try to remove rspec from your Gemfile, bundle install, and run your rake tasks.
