Installing mysql2 gem on Mac os x Lion

问题

The other day I updated to Mac OSX Lion. It broke my rails install as I had to re complie mysql. While I have got that working reinstalling the mysql2 gem has become problematic. I was perviously running leopard so I am going from 32 to 64 bit.

  ~/code/rails/london (master)$ gem install mysql2 -- --with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/mysql
  Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
  ERROR:  Error installing mysql2:

So far I have recompiled and installed MySQL and updated RVM to head. I have also installed Xcode however I have had no luck.

Suggestions?

Don't know if this will help, but lemme try.

To make mysql2 gem working under my OSX Lion, running Ruby 1.8.7:

Install mysql - Download mysql-5.5.14-osx10.6-x86_64

Create an alias inside .bash_profile to mysql e MySQLCOM

alias mysql="/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql"
alias mysqld="sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM"

Install gem 'mysql2', '0.3.6'

Create this symbolic link:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib

回答2:

From terminal $ locate mysql_config so you can find path to it
Then $ sudo gem install mysql2 -- –with-mysql-config=/path/to/mysql_config

I got this installed in the system Ruby (1.8.7 on Lion) as follows:

Install 64-bit MySQL 5.5.19 64-bit from the .dmg
Add /usr/local/mysql/lib to your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH (I prefer this to the symbolic link solution but they should be equivalent). I did this in my .bash_profile via:
```
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/mysql/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH"
```

Execute:

env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" sudo gem install mysql2 -- --with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib --with-mysql-include=/usr/local/mysql/include --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

I solved this issue by reinstalling ruby--which appears to be required since the compilers are updated in Lion.
