For rails 4 and below use rake db:setup which will run the schema, migrations and seed and setup your initial database.

For Rails 5 use rails in place of rake rails db:setup

For further information refer to this Q&A on Stack Overflow:

Difference between rake db:migrate db:reset and db:schema:load

  • Thanks for the reply.But when i run these command on Command Prompt with Ruby and Rails, its showing an error["C:\Sites>rake db:setup rake aborted! No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb, Rakefile.rb) (See full trace by running task with --trace) C:\Sites>rails db:setup The system cannot find the path specified.] can you explain me why this error is showing? – Harry Nov 11 '16 at 05:14
  • have you installed rails or bundler? did you run bundle install? I assume you have a Gemfile in C:\Sites? – David Nov 11 '16 at 08:01
  • I have installed only rubymine and Yes, My project inside C:\Sites\. First, I need to install rails or bundler? – Harry Nov 11 '16 at 08:25
  • install bundler first and then you can just simply do `bundle install` from command line (i think) which should then install rails and all other gems - after that do the `db:setup`. I say 'i think' because I don't have any experience of doing this on Windows - hope this helps. – David Nov 11 '16 at 08:40
  • Thanks Henners66. I will try it. – Harry Nov 11 '16 at 09:41
  • I am getting this error after installing rail and bundle install etc ''rake aborted! On Migration: undefined method `to_sym' for nil:NilClass" c:/project name /Config/application/rb.:7:in and c:/ Rakefile:4:in – Harry Nov 11 '16 at 13:01
  • you might be better off creating a new question regarding this, we are diverging wildly from the original question and you will get faster response if you ask the whole community - also it's very limited putting the necessary information in comments - you should post your application.rb along with the error message and a brief synopsis - e.g. setting up rails on a windows environment etc etc. – David Nov 11 '16 at 14:26
