Problem installing MySQL gem on Fedora
- by Shreyas Satish
When I try rake db:migrate, I get the following error: !!! The bundled mysql.rb driver has been removed from Rails 2.2. Please install the mysql gem and try again: gem install mysql. rake aborted! no such file to load -- mysql
And when I try to "gem install mysql"
Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing mysql: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. /usr/bin/ruby extconf.rb Can't find header files for ruby. Gem files will remain installed in /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.8.1 for inspection.
$ sudo gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
has also been tried but same error. I'm on a Fedora 10. Help will be much appreciated.Cheers!
