running rake task on 'production' and specifying environment?

I have a host at Linode and am trying to run a Rake task on it, but I get a mySQL error saying it can't connect. It looks like it thinks it is on dev. I did some Googling and saw that I can do something like this:

bundle exec rails c

It loads the dev environment and I can't run User.all giving me an access denied error.

If I run bundle exec rails c RAILS_ENV=production I get the error:

Rails.env=production database is not configured (ActiveRecord::AdapterNotSpecified)

However, if I access it via the web, everything is OK. I was able to run rake db:seed before so I know that there's some way around this.

Accessing mySQL with the production credentials works fine.

Any ideas?

This works for me. It depends on how your server and all its dependencies are set up:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails console

If you want to run your console in the context of the current bundle in your Gemfile and ensure you're using your Gemset use:

bundle exec rails c production

Try this:

rails c production

or, at the beginning:

RAILS_ENV=production rails c

It thinks you're passing RAILS_ENV=production as an argument when you put it at the end.
