Paul,
I don't think this is the same gem you loaded, but for my own
use of a similar setup, I use Ruby DBI:
Usage: http://www.kitebird.com/articles/ruby-dbi.html
Download: http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-dbi/
Hope that helps,
Adam

Subject: [Wtr-general] Watir / Ruby / Mysql
I've been using Ruby with Watir for a few months now to scrape data off
of internal web pages where I work. I'm fairly happy with the results,
although I want to improve these processes. I want to put this data
into mysql (yes, I've designed a schema).
On a windows box, I have Watir running with Ruby, and I have mysql
running stand alone. I've used this command to load the mysql
interface:
gem install mysql
and this seemed to complete fine. Then I used this statement to try and
connect from ruby to mysql:
dbh = Mysql.real_connect("localhost", "root", "mysql", "test")
and I got this message:
Error code: 1251
Error message: Client does not support authentication protocol
requested by server; consider
upgrading MySQL client
What am I missing?
Paul
