require 'mysql' is going to search over installed gems ordered by the
OS and load the specified file.

mysql gem no longer uses the extension as entry point, is mysql.rb

I would recommend usage of gem "mysqlplus" before the require to make
it work

Or do something else prior calling the require 'mysql'
