Ruby on Rails

it's not that necessary to use mysql so early if u're just learning RoR.

just start a new project without mysql options:

rails new project_name

Hey all,

I'm trying to learn RoR with absolutely no programming experience
following the ruby on rails essentials tutorial on lynda.com. I'm still
very early in the video series and I created a new project using the
command:

rails new simple_cms -d mysql

but when I try to launch the web server, this happens:

Some version info just in case:
C:\Users\j\Sites\simple_cms>ruby -v
ruby 1.9.3p125 (2012-02-16) [i386-mingw32]

C:\Users\j\Sites\simple_cms>ruby -v
ruby 1.9.3p125 (2012-02-16) [i386-mingw32]

C:\Users\j\Sites\simple_cms>mysql --version
mysql  Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.21, for Win64 (x86)

I've already searched the web looking for solutions, but none of them
seem to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
