[Rails] error accessing the project - while trying to go through Lynda.com tutorial for rails 4.0

Ruby on Rails Saturday, December 13, 2014

Hi everyone,

I'm new to rails and new to this group.

I've been going through Lynda.com tutorials and I got an error. 

I was hoping somebody could help me out :)

Here are the steps I've taken:
1) rails new simple_cms -d mysql
2) cd simple_cms
3) bundle install
4) rails s
5) but when I check the localhost in the browser at http://localhost:3000/

I get the following error message:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)


Unfortunately, this isn't covered in the Lynda.com tutorial and I can't find anything useful on stack overflow, etc.

Your help to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks,
Michael
