help installing mysql-ruby on Tiger

[Joseph Alotta]

Greetings,

I am trying to install mysql-ruby on Tiger. I loaded the
serverlogics package which put at the headers in /Library/MySQL and
MySQL works okay from the command line.

I used the following command which used to work in Panther:
sudo gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-dir=/Library/MySQL


Can someone please help?


Joe.

Thanks, Derek, you are the best. This worked.


Joe.

Hi Joe,

From a terminal,
sudo gem install fixrbconfig
sudo fixrbconfig

and then reinstall the mysql gem.
