test:
adapter: mysql
database: selvista_test
username: root
pool: 5
timeout: 5000
production:
adapter: mysql
database: selvista_prod

should my adapter be mysql2?

Answer 1

You can try to put mysql2 on your adapter lines in you database.yml.
development:
adapter: mysql2
database: selvista
username: root
pool: 5
timeout: 5000
# Warning: The database defined as "test" will be erased and
# re-generated from your development database when you run "rake".
# Do not set this db to the same as development or production.
test:
adapter: mysql2
database: selvista_test
username: root
pool: 5
timeout: 5000
production:
adapter: mysql2
database: selvista_prod
username: root
pool: 5
timeout: 5000
