I came across this problem several days ago,I'm using windows xp ,Here is my solution. 1. edit Gemfile => gem 'mysql2', '0.2.6' 2. download mysql-noinstall-5.1.50-win32.zip at http:// downloads.mysql.com/archives/mysql-5.1/mysql- noinstall-5.1.50-... ,unzip 3. gem install mysql2 -v 0.2.6 -- -- with-mysql-lib=E:\ROR \mysql-5.1.50-win32\lib --with-mysql-include=E: \ROR\mysql-5.1.50- win32\include (replace the file "E:\ROR \mysql-5.1.50-win32" path with yours) 4. this should work now,try bundle install,generate some model ,and run rake db:migrate to see if it works,make sure your database config is right,like this development: adapter: mysql2 encoding: utf8 reconnect: false database: depot_development pool: 5 username: root password: root host: localhost 5.if it still not work ,try this => https://github.com/brianmario/mysql2/issues/8 Hope this helped.
