we tried suggestions from this SO post about correcting installation errors with the mysql2 gem, but our problems persisted. we also looked at other SO posts like this one , but none helped.
we're on rails 3.2.12 on windows 7.
libmysql.dll
is installed in C:\\RailsInstaller\\Ruby1.9.3\\bin
, though this was installed in March 2013.
error:
Using mongo_mapper (0.12.0)
Installing mysql2 (0.3.15)
Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

Gem files will remain installed in C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/mysql2-0.3.15
Results logged to C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/mysql2-0.3.15/ext/mysql2/gem_m
An error occurred while installing mysql2 (0.3.15), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install mysql2 -v '0.3.15'` succeeds before bundling.
Wrote an update on how to do this (after we've had to do it a lot):
C:/mysql-connector
) gem install mysql2 —platform=ruby — '—with-mysql-dir=”C:\\mysql-connector-path”'
Reason
The reason this fails is because Win 7 does not have MYSQL libraries installed, meaning Ruby cannot reference the files it needs to install the gem
You need to install the correct files (which can be removed later on). It seems you've installed the wrong ones, which will probably be the reason why the gem fails to install
Hope this helps!
