Once I changed the adapter to the correct string (postgresql) it worked great.
But I ran into a slightly different question.
I'm struggling with UTF-8 encoding and was wondering if:
1) there is any real difference in postgresql between setting up en_US.UTF-8 and POSIX as far as being able to read/write anything? I'm thinking the answer is no.
2) when rails creates this database, is there some way I can add options to this yaml file to specify the encoding when it's created?
