yes, worked. also if you get an error after the gem installs properly like this

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.15.dylib

do one of these

sudo install_name_tool -change /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.15.dylib /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.15.dylib /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7/lib/mysql.bundle

and you're golden.

To anonymous who used the /usr/local/... tree, my guess is that you previously had the binary mySQL from mySQL installed as that sits in the /usr/local/mysql directory. Otherwise, a fresh install of mySQL on a new mac would not have any files there.

worked great. cheers.

Don't know why my install needed a slightly different version: sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-include=/usr/local/mysql/include --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

Thanks for the heads up on the gem install, and thanks for adding in the "arch" item as well - that got it for me on Panther.

Note, when doing this on Leopard/MacOS X 10.5, I needed to change it to:

sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-include=/opt/local/include/mysql5 \
--with-mysql-lib=/opt/local/lib/mysql5 --with-mysql-config=/opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/mysql_config

this worked perfectly for me, many thanks.
