By at the end do you mean you did gem install mysql2 -- various build options -v 0.2.6 ? if so then that version option is getting passed to the extension building script, not to gem install. You want gem install mysql2 -v 0.2.6 -- various built options. By the way, ~>0.2.6 means 0.2.x, with x >= 6 so its normal that if you only have 0.3.6 things don't work (the 0.3 series of mysql2 require rails 3.1) Fred > > There is any chance someone can tell me what to do now?
