rails 4: mapping values are not allowed in this co

I have successfully installed rails 4 and created project using rails 4.0.0

rails s

for the first time was working fine. But after adding 'devise' gem in gemfile

 gem 'devise', '~> 3.0.0.rc'

and running bundle install, I am getting following error. What is the cause of this error and what will be the solution for it?

I have tried with commenting gem 'devise' section also, but now i am getting same error for every rails command.

gem 'devise' with any version, is showing following error on bundle, if I remove devise gem it works fine, I used rails 3.2.13 but I never faced such problem, what a strange.

回答1:

If somebody still comes the same error you may to check the YAML files in your project. In this example the problem is missed indentations in database.yml. It should looks like this:

development:
  adapter: mysql2
  encoding: utf8
  database: realstate_development
  pool: 5
  username: root
  password: root
  socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

I get the same error but on other grounds, and the whole problem was in incorrect application.yml

回答2:

First note the yml file in which parse method fails due to Psych::SyntaxError. Then look the file for the following

The YAML files should be properly indented and correct syntax must be followed.
1.All members of a list are lines beginning at the same indentation level starting with a "- " (a dash and a space):
2.A dictionary is represented in a simple key: value form (the colon must be followed by a space):
For more syntax related information check the following link: http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/YAMLSyntax.html
