I wanted to try and play with XP tonight with MySQL to show it to someone who had mysql installed already.
This fails: >> gem install mysql ...because it can't find the mysql libs. How do I get Ruby/Rails to mysql in XP? I've found similar errors online... but no solutions to this problem. > checking for main() in -lm... yes > checking for mysql_query() in -lmysqlclient... no > checking for main() in -lz... yes > checking for mysql_query() in -lmysqlclient... no > checking for main() in -lsocket... no > checking for mysql_query() in -lmysqlclient... no > checking for main() in -lnsl... no > checking for mysql_query() in -lmysqlclient... no I might just have to install PostgreSQL for him, but was hoping to show him how to connect to an existing db of his. Any pointers? -Robby -- /****************************************************** * Robby Russell, Owner.Developer.Geek * PLANET ARGON, Open Source Solutions & Web Hosting * Portland, Oregon | p: 503.351.4730 | f: 815.642.4068 * www.planetargon.com | www.robbyonrails.com * Programming Rails | www.programmingrails.com *******************************************************/ _______________________________________________ PDXRuby mailing list [email protected] IRC: #pdx.rb on irc.freenode.net http://lists.pdxruby.org/mailman/listinfo/pdxruby
