Chapter 5 - Page 127 rake db:migrate issue

[MrSteven]

Hello,

I'm on a mac and I had encountered the same problem posted by stoavio,

http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?t=463949

Using the info from that post, I am able to start MySQL. However, I get the following error when I run rake db:migrate on page 127:

(in /Users/mac/shovell)
== CreateStories: migrating ===================================================
-- force()
rake aborted!
undefined method `force' for #<ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::MysqlAdapter:0x26b9640>

(See full trace by running task with --trace)


Any idea what is causing this? Do I need to add something to the migrate command to specify the path to MySQL?
