I'm stuck trying to figure out how to get OS X Lion with a XAMPP installation's MySQL to work with the mysql2 gem in rails.
Here's what I've tried:
Here's the command I'm running to try and get it installed:
gem install mysql2 -- --with-mysql-dir=/var/mysql --with-mysql-include=
/var/mysql/include --with-mysql-lib=/var/mysql/lib --with-mysql-config=
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql_config
I'm at a loss how to get this to work. The only thing I can think of is that I'm somehow not pointing to the directories correctly. I've tried removing /include/, /mysql/ and /lib/ from the with-mysql-include, with-mysql-dir and with-mysql-lib configuration options. No luck with that. I've tried pointing those to the XAMPP installation. No luck still.
The error returned is:
ERROR: Error installing mysql2:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

mysql.h is missing. please check your installation of mysql and try again.

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.
Provided configuration options:
--with-opt-dir
--with-opt-include
--without-opt-include=${opt-dir}/include
--with-opt-lib
--without-opt-lib=${opt-dir}/lib
--with-make-prog
--without-make-prog
--srcdir=.
--curdir
--ruby=/Users/user/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p194/bin/ruby
--with-mysql-config
Gem files will remain installed in /Users/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/mysql2-0.3.11 for inspection.
Results logged to /Users/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/mysql2-0.3.11/ext/mysql2/gem_make.out
It'd be better not to bother with the stuff XAMPP provides, and to just install a fresh copy of MySQL, and simplify your Gem command for installing mysql2:
brew install mysql
gem install mysql2
You were getting errors with installing the gem after installing MySQL through Homebrew because of all this:
--with-mysql-dir=/var/mysql --with-mysql-include= \
/var/mysql/include --with-mysql-lib=/var/mysql/lib --with-mysql-config= \
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql_config
So removing it solves the problem.
