I'm trying to find step-by-step instructions to run Ruby on Rails on MAMP server and use MAMP's mySQL database. I am on Snow Leopard also. I have read Hivelogic's article about this but I really don't want to compile rails, ruby and mySQL.
Anyone have any suggestions

It is very simple, just edit your socket to MAMP's mysql socket in your rail's /config/database.yml
development:
adapter: mysql2
encoding: utf8
reconnect: false
database: myproject_development
pool: 5
username: root
password: root
host: localhost
socket: /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock
