"gem install mysql" failing horribly on OS X leaopard

Doug Livesey

Hi -- I'm having trouble getting the mysql gem to install on an OS X
Leopard machine.
Typical output I get from the console is this:

<CONSOLE>
esft 523 $ sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql --
--with-mysql-include=/usr/local/mysql/include
--with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib

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.

Gem files will remain installed in
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7 for inspection.
Results logged to
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7/gem_make.out

</CONSOLE>

And when I look in the mkmf.log file, at the end of a very long series
of entries, I see this:

<LOG>

</LOG>

Can anyone offer me any advice on getting this to work?
Cheers,
Doug.

Frederick said:
This appears to be the key bit: you're asking for an i386 executable
but that library is apparently a different architecture (lipo -
detailed_info /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.dylib will tell you
what it is)

Fred

I did this, and my libmysqlclient.dylib was i386 -- but I noticed the
compiler commands were:

gcc -I. -I.
-I/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/universal-darwin9.0
-I. -DHAVE_MYSQL_H -I/usr/local/mysql/include -Os -arch i386
-fno-common -fno-common -arch ppc -arch i386 -Os -pipe -fno-common -c
mysql.c
cc -arch ppc -arch i386 -pipe -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup -o
mysql.bundle mysql.o -L"."
-L"/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib" -L.
-arch ppc -arch i386 -lruby -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient -lz
-lm -lpthread -ldl -lm
#output:
ld warning: in /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.dylib, file is not of
required architecture

I copy / pasted the commands stripping out all the '-arch ppc'
instances, and everything worked great for me after that.

Can you try the following command.

sudo env ARCHFLAGS='-arch i386' gem install mysql -v=2.7 --
--with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
