Getting error message while executing ruby code for fetchign data from MYSQL
Hi All,
I need your help on some error message that I am getting. I am working
on cucumber with selenium to automate my application.
Now I am supposed to connect to a database and fetch value from there.
Since I am new to database connectivity stuff so please excuse me for my
silly mistake if any.
Here are all the steps that I followed
1.I installed MYSQL database on my system. The version is 5.1.32.
2.Then I installed MYSQL gem. The version is mysql (2.8.1 x86-mingw32).
3.I have ruby 1.9. I do not have anything related to ROR installed on my
system.
4.I used the steps given on
http://rubylearning.com/satishtalim/ruby_activerecord_and_mysql.html
and created a database with name students.Then I created a table
rubyists in this databse.
I created the ruby file to talk to the database. The code is
require ''rubygems''
require ''active_record''
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection({
:adapter=> "mysql",
:host => "localhost",
:username => "root",
:password => "namitjain",
:database=> "students"
})
class Rubyist < ActiveRecord::Base
end
Rubyist.create(:name => ''Luc Juggery'', :city =>
"Nashville, Tenessee")
Rubyist.create(:name => ''Sunil Kelkar'', :city =>
"Pune, India")
Rubyist.create(:name => ''Adam Smith'', :city => "San
Fransisco, USA")
participant = Rubyist.find(:first)
puts %{#{participant.name} stays in #{participant.city}}
Rubyist.find(:first).destroy
But when I execute this file from command prompt i get the following
error:
C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/activerecord-3.2.8/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/mysql_adapter.rb:144:in

Please help me out and let me know if I am missing on any step that is
required for the correct step. Any input will be of great help.
Thanks in Advance,

Re: Getting error message while executing ruby code for fetchign data from MYSQL
Hi All, I just got it working by replacing the libmySQL.dll in bin directory of my Ruby folder. I referred to the link http://fuyun.org/2010/01/ruby-mysql-adapter-on-windows/ and downloaded the new dll from http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?libmysql. This might be a compatibility issue. Thanks, Namit -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
