Is an error like this normal when doing the db install?
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'VIEW usr_preferences_view AS SELECT id, username, domain, attribute, type AS att' at line 1
By the way, while ruby on rails might be a great development platform, it's a right pain in the behind to install.
