Whenever you can't build "native extensions", it means there is some lib or lib-dev missing. Generally you'll need to do a sudo apt-get install lib-???-dev, or sudo apt-get install build_essential.
This time, I had to install the following: 'sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev' Unfortunately, there is NO EASY WAY (that I know of) to identify what is missing from the attempt to compile. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
