^^^^^ Last line is your problem, ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid. I  
think it means that the database didnt understand the command that  
rails sent to it.

Could you give us some more info about your system? What version of  
mysql are you running? And what ruby-mysql adapter? I think I  
remember reading that one of the ruby-mysql adapters is broken, but I  
only have experience with Postgresql and SQLite.
