Question

I just installed PostgreSQL with homebrew:

$ brew install postgresql

I installed the pg gem with:

 $ gem install pg -- --with-pg-config= '/usr/local/var/postgres/postgresql.conf'

I changed my app’s database.yml to

development:
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: unicode
  database: rails_dev
  pool: 5
  username: vise890
  password:

test:
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: unicode
  database: rails_test
  pool: 5
  username: vise890
  password:

production:
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: unicode
  database: ddb
  port: 5432
  pool: 5
  username: postgres
  password: admin

However, whenever i load any page I get the error:

ActiveRecord::ConnectionNotEstablished

I can connect to the db with pgAdmin (u:vise890 P:{none}) and i see the databases.

I am doing example3 from the Ruby on Rails Tutorial
