Hi,
Ive got Mac OS 10.5.8 and MySQL 5.0.67-osx10.5-x86 (installed in /usr/
local/mysql) working fine with my Rails 2.1.0 applications.
Im trying a test run of Rails 2.3.5 and having to install the MySQL
gem is literally driving me crazy! Ive tried all the following
commands, with sudo and without and I'm getting the same error for all
of them, ie.
ERROR: Error installing mysql:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more
details. You may need configuration options.
The commands I've tried after much Googling and blog posts are,
env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/
usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-dir=/usr/
local/mysql --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib --with-mysql-
include=/usr/local/mysql/include
env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-dir=/usr/
local/mysql --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib --with-mysql-
include=/usr/local/mysql/include --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/
bin/mysql_config
env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql --with-mysql-dir=/usr/
local/mysql
gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/mysql
gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/
mysql_config
As advised by the gem install o/p, I checked the mkmf.log file in /
Users/<user>/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/mysql-2.8.1/ext/mysql_api/mkmf.log and
found this - "ld: library not found for -lmysqlclient" .
Hope someone can help me fix this. Quite frustrating!
Danke!
