ruby/rails rookie needs help to build a simple database app

I am attempting to give myself an intro to ruby and rails. I am a long time
software developer (unix, perl, c, database, web, etc...)

So far every tutorial I have tried has ended in disaster. In one case when
I go to the url listed in the tutorial I get an error and a traceback which
complains about a missing method. The other tutorials have similarly ended
in errors.

I am running on ubuntu 19.04.

One thing about the tutorials : when they say go to your application
directory and execute the command "rails something", would it be better to
execute "./bin/rails something" ?

Also could someone out there recommend a tutorial for a simple database
related app.

Thanks.
