Thanks, Oliver.

I don't have a mysql_config, not sure why.  But, I noticed it wasn't  
finding the header file (mysql.h), so I ran this:

[richard@www mysql-ruby-2.7]$ make clean
[richard@www mysql-ruby-2.7]$ ruby ./extconf.rb --with-mysql-dir=/usr  
--with-mysql-include=/usr/include/mysql
checking for mysql_query() in -lmysqlclient... yes
checking for mysql_ssl_set()... yes
checking for mysql.h... yes
creating Makefile

This time if found it.

[richard@www mysql-ruby-2.7]$ make
gcc -fPIC -g -O2  -I. -I/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux -I/usr/ 
local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux -I. -DHAVE_MYSQL_SSL_SET -DHAVE_MYSQL_H  
-I/usr/include/mysql -I/usr/include  -c mysql.c
gcc -shared  -L'/usr/lib' -Wl,-R'/usr/lib' -L'/usr/local/lib' -Wl,-R'/ 
usr/local/lib' -o mysql.so mysql.o  -lmysqlclient  -ldl -lcrypt -lm    
-lc
[richard@www mysql-ruby-2.7]$ ruby ./test.rb localhost root ertgnhbr
./test.rb:143: undefined method `client_version' for Mysql:Class  
(NoMethodError)

Same error.

Could my compiler be the problem?

gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-53)

Thanks,
Richard
