Rails 3.1 rc4 problem with mysql2

I just installed passenger (apache2) on my ubuntu server to deploy my rails 3.1 rc4 rails app into the wild, and wanted to change from sqlite to mysql.

I installed the necessary ubuntu packages

I updated my Gemfile with the recommended:

gem 'mysql2'

And updated my database.yml file

production:
adapter: mysql2
database: database
username: deploy
password: (***blocked for security reasons***)
socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
pool: 5
timeout: 5000

When I try to create the production database with rake:

rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=”production” --trace

It gives me a bunch of crazy errors

** Invoke db:migrate (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
rake aborted!
”production” database is not configured

(And so on)

I have tried install the regular mysql gem, which also didn't work. I have also tried <0.3 of mysql2, but that seemed to lead to an error being thrown complaining about using versions 0.2 with rails 3.1 rc4

I am really stumped :/

have you tried without the quotes around "production" ?

RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate
