LoadError：加载“mysql2”Active Record 适配器时出错 [rails 5.2.3]

Question

My rails app is using ruby 2.6.3, rails 5.2.3, and MySQL version is 5.7.27. When I tried to run rake db:create then rails showed me the error:

rails aborted!
LoadError: Error loading the 'mysql2' Active Record adapter. Missing a gem it depends on? cannot load such file -- /path/.rbenv/versions/2.6.3/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/gems/activerecord-5.2.3/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/mysql2_adapter.rb
bin/rails:4:in `<main>'

Caused by:

and this is my db configuration:

#
# Install the MySQL driver
#   gem install mysql2
#
# Ensure the MySQL gem is defined in your Gemfile
#   gem 'mysql2'
#
# And be sure to use new-style password hashing:
#   https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/password-hashing.html
#
default: &default

  password: password
  host: localhost
  port: 3306

development:
  <<: *default
  database: project_development

# Warning: The database defined as "test" will be erased and
# re-generated from your development database when you run "rake".
# Do not set this db to the same as development or production.
test:
  <<: *default
  database: project_test

# As with config/secrets.yml, you never want to store sensitive information,
# like your database password, in your source code. If your source code is
# ever seen by anyone, they now have access to your database.
#
# Instead, provide the password as a unix environment variable when you boot
# the app. Read http://guides.rubyonrails.org/configuring.html#configuring-a-database
# for a full rundown on how to provide these environment variables in a
# production deployment.
#
# On Heroku and other platform providers, you may have a full connection URL
# available as an environment variable. For example:
#
#   DATABASE_URL="mysql2://myuser:mypass@localhost/somedatabase"
#
# You can use this database configuration with:
#
#   production:
#     url: <%= ENV['DATABASE_URL'] %>
#
production:
  <<: *default
  database: project_production
  username: videomeeting
  password: <%= ENV['PROJECT_DATABASE_PASSWORD'] %>

I also checked from the gem list and saw that mysql2 already installed. Do you have any suggestion with this error? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

通过重新安装activerecord gem 修复了这个问题。

Answer 2

我在使用 postgresql 时遇到了类似的问题，并且执行“gem install pg”对我有用。

Answer 3

Had this issue a while back, uninstall the mysql gem via the

bundle exec gem uninstall mysql2

and uninstall MySQL on your PC via

brew uninstall mysql@5.7

Re-install both:

brew install mysql@5.7

gem install mysql2 -v '0.5.2'

and hopefully it'll work for you as it did for me. I still however had to figure out the appropriate configurations as you have here:

  encoding: utf8
  pool: <%= ENV.fetch("RAILS_MAX_THREADS") { 5 } %>
  username: name
  password: password
  host: localhost
  port: 3306

Because I wanted to connect my rails app to a MySQL running on Docker, I set my configurations to:

db_database: 'cs_development'
db_username: ''
db_password: 'MySQL'
db_host: '127.0.0.1'
db_port: '3306'
db_adapter: 'mysql2'
