RMagick Breaks on ImageMagick Updates

The easy way to fix this is to just reinstall RMagick, like below:

[hammackj@taco:~/Projects/public/nessusdb]$ nessusdb

Sqlite

Sqlite is a great database to use as a light weight solution. I use Sqlite for all of my assessments. Setting it up on various platforms can be tricky, so here are some examples for what is required to set it up.

Ubuntu 10.10

sudo apt-get install sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev
gem install sqlite3 

Mac OSX

sudo port install sqlite3
gem install sqlite3
