This has been a rough start. I believe that jumping in to the 2.0 game is important for the future, but I find it unfortunate and frustrating that so much key stuff right off the bat was broken between it and this key book. One tip for the newbies if it isn't obvious: Don't forget to run rake db:migrate after generating the scaffold. If you see an error that reads: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in ProductsController#index Mysql::Error: Table 'depot_development.products' doesn't exist: SELECT * FROM `products` then you still need to run rake db:migrate.

One tip for the newbies if it isn’t obvious: Don’t forget to run rake db:migrate after generating the scaffold. If you see an error that reads:

ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in ProductsController#index
Mysql::Error: Table ‘depot_development.products’ doesn’t exist: SELECT * FROM `products`

then you still need to run rake db:migrate.
