I tried to reinstall ruby and gems and it changed nothing. What can i do to solve that?

My info:

Mac OS X 10.8.2 Mountain Lion
Xcode 4.5.1
osx-gcc-installer
Mysql  Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.61, for apple-darwin10.3.0 (i386) using readline 5.1
RVM 1.16.10

P.S. I didn’t have such problem with mysql installation from homebrew.

Answer 1

I founded the solution!

Problem was in MySQL installation. It was x86 which is not correct for Mac OS X 10.7 +.

1) So, first of all we should remove old version of MySQL:

$ sudo rm /usr/local/mysql
$ sudo rm -rf /usr/local/mysql*
$ sudo rm -rf /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM
$ sudo rm -rf /Library/PreferencePanes/My*
$ sudo rm -rf /Library/Receipts/mysql*
$ sudo rm -rf /Library/Receipts/MySQL*
$ sudo rm -rf /var/db/receipts/com.mysql.*

1.1) After that run

$ nano /etc/hostconfig

And remove line with

MYSQLCOM=-YES-

2) Just to make sure that everything will be alright you can remove at least mysql gem:

$ gem uninstall mysql2

Or you can remove all gems in your gemset via rvm:

$ rvm gemset empty your-gemset-name

3) Then install x64 MySQL version.

4) And install all missing gems via bundler:

$ bundle
