Wait, what? I think you're still confused. Using rvm to manage your ruby versions and gemsets has nothing whatsoever to do with how you install server software like MySQL on your system. I suggested that if a MacPorts install of MySQL provided the header files you need to install the mysql *gem* and just worked, then you might as well go with that and be done. So you can get on to the fun part of developing with Rails :-) BTW, do you have a link to the rvm site where it discusses MySQL installation? I've never seen that. -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ [email protected] http://about.me/hassanschroeder twitter: @hassan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
