From: Michael Satterwhite Date: 2006-08-08T23:12:25+09:00 Subject: require 'mysql' is failing I really thought I'd be through at this point ... but Thanks to several of you here (and I *REALLY* appreciate the help), I *FINALLY* managed to get the mysql gem installed. When I ran gem install, it gave me several options, I chose (2) which was for the mysql 2.7 (ruby) gem (I'm running Ubuntu linux). gem reported that the package was successfully installed. When I run ruby, and have the statement require 'mysql' ruby gives me the error :in `require': no such file to load -- mysql (LoadError) What am I missing. At this point, I thought I'd done everything right. thanks again ---Michael -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
