How to create a Rails 2.3.5 controller and scaffold from existing mysql db

Is it still possible to scaffold a Rails 2.3.5 app, where the mysql database and tables already exist? I know you could do this with Rails 1.8.7 like this:

ruby scriptgenerate scaffold recipe recipe

I wanted to confirm if there is any way to pull in an exising mysql database and tables for Rails 2.3.5

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm not that well versed with Rails versions below 3 but if it was ever possible, it should still be possible. :)

My bad. I was pulling it up wrong. I made a controller (singular), but need the plural to pull up the application. It works great!
