Tasks: TOP => erd => erd:generate
I don't understand the problem. I am facing this problem after I upgraded my application from rails 3 to rails 4.2. My application is running without any problem. But when I run rake db:migrate command I get this error. How to solve this problem?
There is a line in the error log might be important but I don't understand it.
GraphViz not installed or dot not in PATH. Install GraphViz or use the 'path' option
It's because your project is using Rails ERD, a gem that can automatically create ERDs - entity relationship diagrams. It relies on a library called graphviz to run. If you want to continue to use it, you'll have to install graphviz. On Linux you can do this via console:
sudo apt-get install graphviz
If you don't want to use the rails-erd gem, remove it from your Gemfile and bundle. If you don't see it in your Gemfile, look at your Gemfile.lock to determine what is requiring the rails-erd gem and think about removing that gem.
Try with below commands.
erd --inheritance --direct --attributes=foreign_keys,content --filetype=dot
dot -Tjpg erd.dot > erd.jpg
