You could always use the SQLite gem (http://sqlite-ruby.rubyforge.org/\)

I ve looked teh SQLite gem, but there don´t say how to get a connection
with an existent database. All time it´s creating the database... :(.

Then you didn't look close enough. If the file/db doesn't exist, it will
be created. Otherwise, the SQLite gem will use the existing database.
