How to Use Configuration Files
The database.yml file has a hidden option for those whose mysql.sock file does not reside at the default /tmp/mysql.sock location. To change the socket, add the following line (for example) to each of the configurations in database.yml:

production:
  socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

The config directory can also be used for application configuration.

How To Use Unicode Strings
While you can’t use Unicode strings with ruby, you can store UTF-8 encoded data in your 8-bit strings. However some of the String methods assume a single byte encoding and therefore return wrong results. Besides, without proper settings you will get output and input as sequences of bytes and you might get parse errors in literals.
