'development' database is not configured

I am getting this error while doing rake db:migrate of newly cloned app.

'development' database is not configured. Available: ["production"]

So after reading the error, I am doing RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate

But this isn't working either.

My database.yml has 

production:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
database: test
pool: 5
username: admin
password: admin
port: 5433

Please suggest.

Your database.yml file shows you have only production environment configured for DB operations. You need to add configuration for development environment as well.

Open your database.yml file and add a configuration for development environment. Something like the following should suffice (contents in square brackets are to be replaced with your actual values):

development:
    adapter:[your adapter]
    encoding: [your encoding]
    database: [your database for development]
    pool: [your pool]
    username: [your database server username]
    password: [your database server password]
    port: [the port you're connecting on]

Remember to indent your yaml code appropriately.

Add

development:
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: unicode
  database: test
  pool: 5
  username: admin
  password: admin
  port: 5433
  host: localhost

to database.yml file.

Also, if you test your application, you'll need test environment as well.
