This one is a note so that I don’t have to struggle again:
The mysql client that ships with the latest mysql doesn’t play nice with the mysql gem. Even after gem install mysql you still get the annoying error that says
!!! The bundled mysql.rb driver has been removed from Rails 2.2. Please install the mysql gem and try again: gem install mysql
Well the trick to fix this is simple. Download the old libmysql.dll from here and move it into the bin/ directory of your ruby installation and restart the mysql service.
