Hi,

I am on Mac OS X Lion.

I installed Ruby on Rails and mysql2 gem. When I try to run the server with "rails server" command, I get the following errors:

/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle: dlopen(/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle, 9): Library not loaded: libmysqlclient.18.dylib (LoadError)   Referenced from: /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle   Reason: image not found - /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mysql2-0.3.7/lib/mysql2.rb:9   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.0.21/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:68:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.0.21/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:68:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.0.21/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:66:in `each'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.0.21/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:66:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.0.21/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:55:in `each'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.0.21/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:55:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.0.21/lib/bundler.rb:122:in `require'   from /Users/Admin/Sites/simple_cms/config/application.rb:7   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/railties-3.1.1/lib/rails/commands.rb:52:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/railties-3.1.1/lib/rails/commands.rb:52   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/railties-3.1.1/lib/rails/commands.rb:49:in `tap'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/railties-3.1.1/lib/rails/commands.rb:49   from script/rails:6:in `require'   from script/rails:6

Could anyone help me?

Thanks, Eleeist

You have installed mysql ?

My guess is that you are tripping over some of the OS X preinstalled ruby components. I suggest that you start fresh with RVM using the single-user scenario, (see http://beginrescueend.com/ ) and try again.
