    copied!<p><strong>OS Version:</strong> Mac OS X 10.7.1 Lion<br> <strong>Ruby Version:</strong> <code>ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32553) [x86_64-darwin11.1.0]</code><br> <strong>Ruby Location:</strong> <code>/usr/local/rvm/bin/ruby</code><br> <strong>Rails Version:</strong> <code>Rails 3.1.0</code><br> <strong>Rails Location:</strong> <code>/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/bin/rails</code></p> <p>Now, I installed the mysql2 gem and when I run <code>gem list</code> it shows up in the list as: <code>mysql2 (0.3.7)</code></p> <p>So far so good, right? OK, so here's where it gets tricky. No matter what I do, I can't start the server. In terminal I cd to the directory my rails app is and run <code>rails s</code>. However, instead of starting i get this:</p> <pre><code>/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2.rb:9:in `require': dlopen(/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle, 9): Library not loaded: libmysqlclient.18.dylib (LoadError) Referenced from: /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle Reason: image not found - /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2.rb:9:in `&lt;top (required)&gt;' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/bundler-1.0.18/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:68:in `require' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/bundler-1.0.18/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:68:in `block (2 levels) in require' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/bundler-1.0.18/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:66:in `each' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/bundler-1.0.18/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:66:in `block in require' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/bundler-1.0.18/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:55:in `each' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/bundler-1.0.18/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:55:in `require' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/bundler-1.0.18/lib/bundler.rb:120:in `require' from /Users/doug/Sites/simple_cms/config/application.rb:7:in `&lt;top (required)&gt;' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/railties-3.1.0/lib/rails/commands.rb:52:in `require' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/railties-3.1.0/lib/rails/commands.rb:52:in `block in &lt;top (required)&gt;' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/railties-3.1.0/lib/rails/commands.rb:49:in `tap' from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/railties-3.1.0/lib/rails/commands.rb:49:in `&lt;top (required)&gt;' from script/rails:6:in `require' from script/rails:6:in `&lt;main&gt;' </code></pre> <p>Obviously, this is not what should be happening. The problem is I can't figure out why not. None of the solutions I've come across have worked.</p> <p>This is actually my first attempt at getting Ruby/RoR working on my computer. I'm following a tutorial from Lynda.com and, unsurprisingly, this doesn't happen to the guy doing the videos.</p> <p>I've tried searching and, as I said, nothing seems to help. Ideas?</p>
