Problem is that you're trying to link Ruby (32bits) against MySQL (64bits) library. Please read this: http://blog.mmediasys.com/2011/07/07/installing-mysql-on-windows-7-x64-and-using-ruby-with-it/ After you installed, you will require to modify your Gemfile to reflect either "mysql" or "mysql2" gems and don't forget to adjust "adapter" in config/database.yml -- Luis Lavena -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
