I need Rails in order to run chiliproject, but when running the following command
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:migrate
I get:

rake aborted!
cannot load such file -- mysql

Now with --trace:
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:migrate --trace >> tmp/rake

Does anyone knows what's wrong with mysql gem files?
I also tried to install mysql gem files like this
gem install ruby-mysql2 --no-rdoc --no-ri -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/bin/mysql_config

Answer 1

I was just having similar problems and you may be doing what I was: I was using 'gem list' to determine what was installed (it lists *** LOCAL GEMS *** just like you show) and I saw mysql, but the Gemfile for my project was not requiring bundler to install mysql.
If you just type bundle show does it list 'mysql'? If not, then the Gemfile in chiliproject is not causing bundler to install mysql. I found this all very confusing until I realized I was confusing different ways of managing what gems are installed.
If you or others who comes this way are having the same issue, then perhaps this is helpful. (And perhaps this poor explanation will encourage one of the rails gurus to elaborate for us.)
To say it another way, the list of your locally installed gems, isn't the same as the list installed in your app's bundle of gems (hence where the name of the bundler tool comes from). When you're running your app, and managing its dependencies with bundler you have to do everything within the bundler scope, in order to make sure it all works together. When you do that it's actually very straight forward and solves a lot of problems for you, but if you're coming from previous experience on apps that didn't use bundler then it just takes a little getting used to.

Answer 2

2 steps that worked for me:
Copy the file libmySQL.dll from /libhttp://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/Connector-C/mysql-connector-c-noinstall-6.0.2-win32.zip/from/pick (in the folder /lib/) in c:/your/path/to/ruby/bin (Make sure your ruby bin is in your system PATH environnement variable)
The Default setup is given for MySQL with ruby1.8. If you're running Redmine with MySQL and ruby1.9, replace the adapter name with mysql2 in your /config/database.yml file
http://www.redmine.org/issues/10566

Answer 3

Just on bundle install try this >>
bundle install --without=test development sqlite postgres mysql rmagick
This will install all required base dependencies, the mysql2 database adapter
Cause mysql adapter is not compatible with Ruby 1.9
And don't forget to change config/database.yml --> s/mysql/mysql2
