I have a 1-click installation of Ruby on Rails 4, NginX, and Ubuntu running on my droplet.
Unfortunately, I haven’t found a way to create my production database from my schema.rb file yet.
I think this is due to the fact that my Rails environment is still set to “development”. When I type “rake about” I get this:
Application root /home/rails Environment development Database adapter sqlite3
I would like to set my app to production mode, though. I would also like to use MySQL instead of SQLite.
How can this be done?
Typing “RAILS_ENV=production” seems to have no effect whatsoever.
Thanks for any help.
