Just installed devise, but I think I broke something along the way. My app is no longer working. How do I troubleshoot?

Looks like a typo in config/environments/development.rb. The error is "undefined local variable or method 'onfig'" which i assume was meant to be "config".

Thanks Geoff. I found the typo, but looks like something else broke in the process. I was in the middle of installing devise when everything fell apart. http://www.screencast.com/t/yOMooug5oypK

Looks like you just need to run migrations like it says:

rake db:migrate
