I noticed that you've already managed to resolve the issue, but I also had a similar problem upgrading to 2.2.2 and found a quick work- around. Here is my solution in case others need help (if this doesn't work, try Jason Smith's method).
-------- If you are having problems with MySQL, getting errors like: “The bundled mysql.rb driver has been removed from Rails 2.2. Please install the mysql gem and try again: gem install mysql.” “C:/ruby/lib/ ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7.3-x86-mswin32/ext/mysql.so” Here is the solution: 1) First, gem install mysql. If this doesn’t help continue… 2) Copy libmysql.dll from InstantRails (see below) to your mysql directory (C:\mysql\bin\). Restart your computer and it should be working. InstantRails libmysql.dll: http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/InstantRails-win/InstantRails/mysql/bin/ On Dec 5, 12:49 pm, Jason Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > So my final notes as of Dec 05, 2008 to get Ruby, Rails, Mysql working > on > Windows Vista Ultimate x64 edition. > > MySQL x64 will work fine on it's own, but not with the latest versions > of Ruby on rails, as the mysql driver is for 32 bit only. > So you have grab an older version[ MySQL 5.0.67 win32(I installed > essential)], as 5.1.30-win32 won't play nice with Rails. > After installing you need to reboot, then you run the instance script to > configure MySQL. > > Then you can install/update Ruby and Rails and all the gems as you'd > like. > > I currently have Ruby 1.8.6 (there is no one step installer for ruby > 1.8.7 and I had some issues with the binaries) > Rails 2.2.2 > Gem 1.3.1 ( had to first run >gem install rubygems-update then > > >update_rubygems to update from 1.2.0 gems ) > also ran > >gem install mysql > >gem install mongrel > > Don't forget to make sure the PATH is updated and points to both your > mysql/bin directory and ruby/bin directories.
