You have to explicitly tell rails to create database.yml with mysql data: CODE rails -d mysql demo Then go to config/database.yml and configure username and password for your MySQL server. PS: You should have mysql gem installed CODE gem install mysql I should warn you that Windows is far from good ruby dev enviroment. You will have problems compiling native extensions for specific gems.
