Answer 1

For Mac, I had a problem with openssl issue

An error occurred while installing mysql2 (0.5.2), and Bundler cannot continue.

I fixed this issue use command as below;

$ bundle config --local build.mysql2 "--with-ldflags=-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib --with-cppflags=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include"

$ sudo bundle install

Alternative Resolve

if you still have error and got the message in the console that: You are replacing the current local value of build.mysql2, which is currently nil. Please try as below:

$ export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib"
$ export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include"

Then run:

$ sudo gem install mysql2 -v '0.5.2' --source 'https://rubygems.org/' -- --with-cppflags=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include --with-ldflags=-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib

Show result:

Building native extensions with: '--with-cppflags=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include --with-ldflags=-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib'
