UPDATE!!!!!! Here is what I did and everything is working. I uninstalled Mysqlx64 and Ruby. ran into an issue where Vista kept the service for Mysql even after I unistalled it, so I had to go into the registry and manually delete the service entry. Then I was able to install mysql-essential-5.1.30-win32. After installation I checked to make sure everything was fine, there is only one small error and that is when you do a version check >mysql -v ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
This is no big deal as I can access the mysql database using >mysql -u admin -p #and then providing the password, also can get in using the >mysql command line client after providing password. next I installed Ruby 1.8.6, I tried grabbing 1.8.7 but there is no one-click installer and I had issues with the binary so decided to stay with 1.8.6 Then I ran: >gem install rubygems-update >update_rubygems >gem install rails >gem install mysql # which has an ERROR: While generating documentation for mysql-2.7.3-x86-mswin32 ... MESSAGE: Unhandled special: Special: type=17, text="<!-- $Id: README.html,v 1.20 2006-12-20 05:31:52 tommy Exp $ -->" ........... (continuing with the rest of the installation) >gem install mongrel --include-dependencies #this also appears to be no big deal, as it only affects documentation. Then I launched the Server, head to localhost:3000 click on about your app and everything appears rosy, no apparent mysql issues and all the versions look good...until you run rake db:migrate then run into the undefined method 'each' for #<Mysql:0x609076c> http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/172158#new which apparently is a problem only when running mysql 5.1 and rails 2.2.2(maybe 2.1.2 not checking) so I need to back that out to 5.0.67 and then.....hopefully everything will be good....until I have to update any component in this equation. so thats the update, enjoy.
