JRuby limited openssl loaded. gem install jruby-openssl for full support. http://wiki.jruby.org/wiki/JRuby_Builtin_OpenSSL Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing mysql:   ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

Gem files will remain installed in C:/Program Files/NetBeans 6.7.1/ruby2/jruby-1.2.0/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.8.1 for inspection. Results logged to C:/Program Files/NetBeans 6.7.1/ruby2/jruby-1.2.0/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.8.1/ext/mysql_api/gem_make.out

thanks in advance....

I'm not a Windows user, nor a J*** user, not even a Netbeans user, but it seems like Netbeans is trying to execute "cmd" to get a DOS console. Try to open it your self and install the gem via the gem command.

Hope it helps.

You probably want the `jdbc-mysql` and (if you're using Rails) the activerecord-jdbcmysql-adapter gem(s) instead.

HTH,

Deva, any luck with this issue? Having the exact same problem when I upgraded to Netbeans 6.7.1 on Windows XP.
