Rails - Sep 2009 - undefined method `get_client_info' for Mysql:Class

after upgraded to Snow Leopard...  (32bits arch)

I re-installed the mysql gem  (i386 architecture) , all gems and
rails 2.3.4
testing in the console

$ irb
irb(main):001:0> require ''rubygems''
=> true
irb(main):002:0> require ''mysql''
=> true

Mysql.get_client_info
NoMethodError: undefined method `get_client_info'' for Mysql:Class
	from (irb):3

I should get "5.1.38"  (MySQL installed db version...) or  did the
Mysql class changed w Rails 2.3.4 ?
is this test wrong ?

thanks for your advices

Your test works for me.

But I had a horrible time getting everything working on a Macbook.

I have no idea what finally worked, as I was trying so many different
things and then walked away whistling when it finally did work.

Did you do an upgrade, or a clean install?  I did an upgrade and I
think that was the source of most of my problems.  I also had no issue
at all with a 64bit iMac.

What finally worked for me:

install mysql-5.1.38-osx10.5-x86_64    (from mysql.org).  Then install
the mysql gem with:
env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install mysql  -- --with-mysql-
config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

Run this ruby script to see what other gems are broken in the 32->64
bit transition:  http://gist.github.com/178178

There''s some more detail in the following:

I am stupid and bad writer ...

Mysql.get_client_info
NoMethodError: undefined method `get_client_info'' for Mysql:Class
        from (irb):3

it happens because I wrote the bad method, should have written :

Mysql.get_client_info
=> "5.1.38"
