There are a few possible root of this issue: 1) Incompatible MySQL "libmysql.dll" placed in your PATH. You're using mysql2 gem but it requires MySQL 5.0.x DLL. If you're not using the exact same version, it will fail. Please read this: http://blog.mmediasys.com/2011/07/07/installing-mysql-on-windows-7-x64-and-using-ruby-with-it/ While it covers the case of 64bits MySQL versus 32bits Ruby, it applies to version mismatch issues. 2) Another binary gem that is breaking the process. >From the list you provided I cannot find any, but these are most likely the culprit on 90% of the cases. > > but I cannot access the site.
