Hi everyone! I'm on the step "Generate a Scaffold". Everything was going fine. I added a line of code: "bin/rake db:migrate". Then I added a line after, witch was: "bin/rake db:migrate ". But then I recieved this message:
There was an error parsing Gemfile: syntax error, unexpected keyword_end, expecting end-of-input. Bundler cannot continue.
# from /home/Boben/projects_ruby/odot/Gemfile:18 # ------------------------------------------- # gem 'spring'
end #
# -------------------------------------------
I really don't know what I've done wrong. I've checked the gem file and nothing seems wrong!! But I am a newbie, so I might not know. Here is the line of code: "gem 'spring' end". Please help me! Thank you.

A deprecation is something that is no longer supported in that a later release has replaced its functionality with something else - another method, function, or whatever. But the original function still works just as it used to. (This one is also a Rails/Rake issue - so just let it slide - details)
There is a way to mute the warnings but the easiest way is just to ignore them. Your code is fine. Don't worry.

57,712 PointsHi Martin,
I'll assume that entering 'inside my Ruby project file' means in the terminal, not in a code file. That's where it should be.
I have added a comment in your Gemfile post; delete that line - you have an extra end that isn't needed.
Steve.

57,712 PointsHi Martin,
Where did you type bin/rake db:migrate? That should be in the console/terminal, not a line of code in any of your files.
Also, can you paste the contents of your Gemfile into here? THere seems to be an issue with that too.
Thanks,
Steve.

6,807 PointsHey Steve!
I'm using Linux right now, so I typed it into the terminal. bin/rake db:migrate straight inside my Ruby project file. Like Jason Seifer did. I also get the error inside the terminal.
With content, you mean the line of code. Right? Anyways, here is the Gemfile:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'rails', '4.2.3'
gem 'sqlite3'
gem 'sass-rails', '~> 5.0'
gem 'uglifier', '>= 1.3.0'
gem 'coffee-rails', '~> 4.1.0'
gem 'jquery-rails'
gem 'turbolinks'
gem 'jbuilder', '~> 2.0'
gem 'sdoc', '~> 0.4.0', group: :doc
group :development, :test do
gem 'byebug'
gem 'web-console', '~> 2.0'
end # <-- delete this line
gem 'spring'
end
group :development, :test do
gem 'rspec-rails', '~> 2.0'
end
group :test do
gem 'capybara', '~> 2.1.0'
end
Cheers!

6,807 PointsSH*T! Dude thanks! The error that I've been recieving is finally gone! Did NOT notice that "end". I really appriciate that you took some of your time to help me, Steve!
But before I let you go (hehe, sorry), something else pops up.
When I type
bin/rake db:migrate
I get:
[DEPRECATION] `last_comment` is deprecated. Please use `last_description` instead.

57,712 PointsAlways happy to help, Martin, so that's not a problem!
I hope you make good progress on the course; give me a shout if you get stuck with anything.
Love Sweden; great place - we raced in Kalmar a couple of years ago. Loved it. That's where my profile avatar was taken.
