i have installed mysql2 and 64bit mysql server.
when i run rake db:create it gives me this errror

does any one know whats happening here?

perror says that 2 means no such file or directory. I’d guess that mysql is configured incorrectly, eg the path it is trying to store files at doesn’t exist (or isn’t writable by the user mysql is running as)
