On a parallel note, be aware that many people having tried to use SQLite3 with RoR have at some point given up. After a good start, I had an issue with the usage of quotes around columns name. Sometimes they were OK, sometimes they seemed missing. I met that issue when I started using a Table.find_by_column call but couldn't make it work. The same code worked like a treat with MySQL, which unfortunately was over-dimensioned for my little hack (where SQLite would have been perfect). Before using such constructs, the adapter behaved as expected. So your mileage may vary ... J-P
