You've made the same common mistake that many others on this list have made. :) The file that Rails can't load is not the mySQL app itself, but rather the mysql gem (which contains the libraries that tell Ruby how to talk to the DB). Install the gem and all should be well. But you probably should be using PostgreSQL anyway. It's a *much* better DB.
