Hello everyone, I wanted to learn about Ruby on Rails and its advantages and I decided to start with some tutorials. Unfortunately I''m forced to post my problem on the forum after days of unsuccessful solutions. I''ve installed Railsinstaller and mysql 5.5.15 64 bit version. I''m running win 7. I''ve been using the following command: C:\>gem install mysql2 -- --with-mysql-lib=C:\MySQL\lib --with-mysql-include=C:\MySQL\include I''ve used this command and included path for Mysql 32 bit (lib, include directories) but I constantly get the following error: C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.2/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb --with-mysql-lib=C:\MySQL\lib --with-mysql-include=C:\MySQL\include checking for rb_thread_blocking_region()... yes checking for main() in -llibmysql... no *** extconf.rb failed *** Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may need configuration options. For what I understand it might be having problems finding the right library for the install. Any help is warmly appreciated. I''ve manage to create a working application with SQLite, but I honestly prefer to use Mysql.

I am successfully using mysql with rails...Do the following
1. edit Gemfile => gem ''mysql2'', ''0.2.6''
2. download mysql-noinstall-5.1.50-win32.zip at
http://downloads.mysql.com/archives/mysql-5.1/mysql-noinstall-5.1.50-...
,unzip
3. gem install mysql2 -v 0.2.6 -- --with-mysql-lib=E:\ROR
\mysql-5.1.50-win32\lib --with-mysql-include=E:\ROR\mysql-5.1.50-
win32\include (replace the file "E:\ROR\mysql-5.1.50-win32" path
with
yours)
4. this should work now,try bundle install,generate some
model ,and run rake db:migrate to see if it works,make sure your
database config is right,like this
development:
adapter: mysql2
encoding: utf8
reconnect: false
database: depot_development
pool: 5
username: root
password: root
host: localhost
5.if it still not work ,try this =>
https://github.com/brianmario/mysql2/issues/8
Hope this helped
