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
