Dont understand what to do. gem install mysql installing without MySQl itself or I should download and install MySQL as prorgamm? If yes, from what resource, what version, how to instal? Please help me, im newbie on mac. Big thanks!
You're almost certainly going to need MySQL installed to have the MySQL gem installed (even better is the mysql2 gem, which Rails also works with - just use mysql2 instead of mysql in your database.yml file).
I find the best way to get MySQL on my Mac whenever I format it (which, admittedly, is rarely) is to use Homebrew. So, if you don't have Homebrew installed, I'd start with that... and once that's done, it should be a matter of running sudo brew install mysql, and running the instructions it provides after the installation is done.

I've recently started exploring JRuby using Joe Kutner's book "Deploying with JRuby", but I've hit an issue when trying to install the jruby-lint gem. Below is the output from my attempts, including the version numbers of Java, JRuby, and my OS.
I don't understand the output, especially why nokogiri wouldn't install as a jruby-lint dependency, but would install ok on its own. While the jruby-lint gem is now reported as having installed correctly, it has not delivered a jrlint executable/script to use, and I don't know where to go from here. Any ideas?

I ran into a very similar issue, also while working through this book. Updating Rubygems solved it for me. Perhaps try:
jruby -S gem update --system
It's interesting that it tries to install the Ruby(not JRuby) version of Nokogiri cause it tries to install C extensions.
I think if you install the same version required by jruby-lint which is nokogiri-1.6.0.rc1, problem will be solved.
Neither solution here works for me on Windows. jruby -S gem install nokogiri
installs nokogiri-1.6.0-java
If I download the gem from https://github.com/jruby/jruby-lint and build it myself it leaves the gem folder empty at jruby\lib\ruby\gems\shared\gems\jruby-lint-0.4.1
And it won't make a bat file for running it in the /bin dir. I don't think this gem is ready for windows. Could it be that I'm trying to install it on BitNami stack? I haven't tried it with a regular install of JRuby.
In case updating Rubygems doesn't work, try:
gem install nokogiri
This will install nokogiri-1.6.0-java
then again:
gem install jruby-lint
and you're good to go.
Environment:
Windows 7 64bit (Home Premium)
Ruby 1.9.2 p290 (2011-07-09) [i386-mingw32]
Rails 3.0.10
MySQL 5.5
Ruby, despite my having successfully installed the mysql2 rubygem thinks that the gem is missing when I invoke a rails command that requires it.
After having spent the evening getting the mysql rubygem installed on Windows 64 bit, I decided to (finally) get cracking on linking mysql to a local rails server. This is how I was trying to do it...

Notes:
I noticed it wants rubygem mysql2-0.2.11, I have 0.3.7. I tried installing 0.2.11 specifically by the method I used to install the two gems above. No dice, it couldn't find a gem by the name mysql2-0.2.11 in 'any repository'
I'm stumped, any thoughts fellas (and gals)?
I believe your MySQL installation is a 64bits (like Windows), correct?
Ruby is 32bits, so you cannot link 32bits against 64bits.
I've posted a article covering the installation steps on my blog:
http://blog.mmediasys.com/2011/07/07/installing-mysql-on-windows-7-x64-and-using-ruby-with-it/
These steps use MySQL Connector/C to workaround the 32bits versus 64bits issues.
Both mysql or mysql2 gem should work with this.
Have you included mysql2 in your Gemfile and subsequently executed bundle install ?
## my sql installation (on 64 bit architecture)
download connector (download zip file and extract it to c drive)
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/c/
download mysql
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/5.6.html
command to install mysql with connector
C:\Sites\rails_project\resume>gem install mysql --platform=ruby -- --with-mysql-
dir=C:/mysql-connector-c-6.1.0-win32
After this copy libmysql.dll from connector folder and paste it to ruby>bin folder
I'm trying to move a small Sinatra app I have going on an Ubuntu box to a redhat box.
While installing gems, I get a "Can't build native extension" error while trying to install the gem dm-mysql-adapter.
I have mysql-devel installed, which I believe is the required library, but it doesn't seem to work.
All the info I can find online is for Ubuntu and says installing libmysqlclient-dev (which doesn't exist for Redhat; again, I believe mysql-devel is the appropriate package).
Any advice for someone using redhat?
you have the correct package "mysql-devel-5.1.48-1" but the gem installs fine on my centos5 box without the package installed, you could try the ruby-mysql gem instead.

Trying to start a new Rails 3 beta 4 app with mysql.... Running OS X Snow Leopard. WIth previous versions of Rails I have no problem with MySQL. But now when I start the Rails 3 app I get the following error when I click "About Your Application Environment" on the Rails index.html startup screen:
undefined method `init' for Mysql:Class
Change your Gemfile to use 'mysql2', it's a more modern driver and has nicer features as other people have mentioned.
New Rails applications use the mysql2 gem by default.
I ran into the same issue (RoR 3, OSX 10.6, mysql 2.8.1 gem).
You can use irb to rule out RoR:
irb
require 'rubygems'
require 'mysql'
db = Mysql.connect('hostname', 'username', 'password', 'database')
If the above doesn't work, you may want to try removing the mysql gem and reinstalling it. I came across a post saying bundle install might mess up the install without displaying errors.
sudo gem uninstall mysql
sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
Verify things work via irb, then start up rails again.
I ended up switching from the mysql gem to the ruby-mysql gem, worked.
For simple usage, which is typical (connecting, querying, iterating over results), I found mysql2 gem which is much faster than mysql or ruby-mysql gems and auto-casts values to proper types. And it installes perfectly on Snow Leopard while I couldn't get mysql gem to work.
More info at http://github.com/brianmario/mysql2
I think I have found the solution for the problem. In my case the problem was that the mysql gem hasn't been properly installed using the bundler . when I did this:
bundle install mysql (noobish mistake)
all gems went to mysql directory, but later on I have checked the docs of the bundler gem
and did this:
bundle install bundler_files ( to know where the gems are in the future)
everything looked almost ok except that when mysql gem was installing i got some errors.
I noticed that it was because of my folder path "/home/pawel/Aptana Studio Workspace/myrails_app"
If you have spaces in your folder path this gem wont install properly and later on when you modify the path to one without spaces and try to install the mysql gem IT WONT DISPLAY ANY ERRORS, but the installation will be corrupted, because you will have some extra folders there with some files etc. so
DELETE THE GEM FOLDER CREATED BY BUNDLER AND REINSTALL GEMS WITH THIS COMMAND:
bundle install
That solved the problem.
you can try switching to the mysql2 gem which should resolve all that issues for you. see: https://github.com/brianmario/mysql2/
I think what happens is that the mysql gem isn't able to load the mysql dynamic library (supposed to be supplied by the native MySQL installation). To test whether this is happening, do this
$ irb
1.9.2p320 :001 > require 'mysql_api'
=> true
1.9.2p320 :002 >
If it isn't able to load this low level mysql_api, (which actually supplies the functionality to the mysql gem), it will give you some potentially useful errors. Usually it is not able to find the dynamic library. To remedy this, I found a couple of solutions:
From http://wonko.com/post/how-to-install-the-mysqlruby-gem-on-mac-os-x-leopard, do this
For system-wide install
sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql -- \
--with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib \
--with-mysql-include=/usr/local/mysql/include
or local install
env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql -- \
--with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib \
--with-mysql-include=/usr/local/mysql/include
and then from http://alexbraunstein.com/2011/08/12/library-loaded-libmysqlclient-18-dylib/ put in .bash_profile:
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/mysql/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
I has the same issue after upgrading to Snow Leopard. On installing the MySQL gem, I got a bunch of errors about the documentation, then, on running the server:
undefined method `init' for Mysql:Class
I was also having some similar, but unrelated issues with other gems, particularly those that had C components that needed compiling such as RedCloth and hpricot:
Unable to compile native extensions
These errors were to do with native extensions in base 64 architecture. The solution was threefold:
I reinstalled XCode 4. The upgrade to Snow Leopard had broken my C compiler, so some gems were failing to compile. This took me a step closer, but didn't fix the issue.
I blew away and reinstalled RVM. It appeared to be installing gems in one directory, and finding them in another. This fixed every native architecture base64 error, but the MySQL gem was still failing.
I removed and downgraded MySQL to version 5.1. This fixed the MySQL gem issue.
All is now well again.
So I am getting the same issue as mentioned here -
gem install mysql failure in Snow Leopard
But I haven't been able to get it fixed using the answers on this link.
Here's a brief history -
I had MAMP on my machine,
but now I downloaded the latest MySQL from mysql.com and installed version 5.1.46
this new version runs fine and client "mysql" is able to connect
and I also have XCode v3.2.1, since someone mentioned that it can cause issues.
Here's the error -

"can't find header files for ruby" usually means that the system can't locate the header files for Ruby. This happened to me when I upgraded to 10.6 from 10.5. Download the latest XCode from Apple's site and reinstall it. Make sure that you check the box for "UNIX Development" during the install. The header files for Ruby are not in the main package.
Have you installed other versions of Ruby or are you using the standard 1.8.7 that comes with OS X? You can check your version of ruby by typing ruby -v at a terminal prompt.
