dbh = DBI.connect("dbi:Mysql:test:localhost", "testuser", "testpass")

Ah yes, MySQL. You have some options:

1) Use ODBC. connect("dbi:odbc:your_mysql_db_dsn")

2) Get the pure-Ruby MySQL wrapper (I don't think you can use DBI with this, so your code won't be portable to other DBMSes):
 http://raa.ruby-lang.org/list.rhtml?name=ruby-mysql

3) Build Ruby/MySQL. That's non-trivial, and probably not an option if you're not a C/C++ programmer.

By the way, these questions are the kinds of questions you will find better help on general Ruby forums than this one:
