Also, if you genuinely don't have a rakefile (ie it got deleted), you can
create one yourself. ie:

(first, make sure you are in your rails app's root directory)

$ cat <<'RAKEFILE_END' > Rakefile
# Add your own tasks in files placed in lib/tasks ending in .rake,
# for example lib/tasks/capistrano.rake, and they will automatically be
available to Rake.

require(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'config', 'boot'))

require 'rake'
require 'rake/testtask'
require 'rake/rdoctask'

require 'tasks/rails'
RAKEFILE_END
