Which DB you are using? There are bunch of JDBC equivalent drivers gems
for the DB of your choice.
$ gem list activerecord-jdbc --remote
*** REMOTE GEMS ***
activerecord-jdbcderby-adapter (0.9.1)
activerecord-jdbch2-adapter (0.9.1)
activerecord-jdbchsqldb-adapter (0.9.1)
activerecord-jdbcmysql-adapter (0.9.1)
activerecord-jdbcpostgresql-adapter (0.9.1)
activerecord-jdbcsqlite3-adapter (0.9.1)
Just install one of these gems that you need.
$ gem install activerecord-jdbcmysql-adapter
Edit database.yml
development:
adapter: *jdbcmysql*
....
Currently jruby container does not load any jars form its lib directory
as there has never been a need for it. This is something I can fix.
Since it's not a servlet/ejb application so just adding a JDBC driver is
not going to help you. You would still need activerecord adapter. Hence
these gems are the simple and easy way to go.

Current warbler version is 0.9.13 which uses jruby-rack 0.9.4 and it
does not use goldspike jar. Anyway, these things are hidden from you.
