An error occurred while installing mysql2 (0.3.13), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install mysql2 -v '0.3.13'` succeeds before bundling.

Gemfile is,

I have try to install mysql2 then it got installed mysql2 (0.4.0) but this will shows below error while starting a rails server

/home/aparna/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.1/gems/activerecord-4.2.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/connection_specification.rb:177:in `rescue in spec': Specified 'mysql2' for database adapter, but the gem is not loaded. Add `gem 'mysql2'` to your Gemfile (and ensure its version is at the minimum required by ActiveRecord). (Gem::LoadError)

How can I solve mysql2 installation issue?

There's a bug in mysql2-0.4.0 version, look into neighbor question

Try to install latest mysql2-0.3.x version:

Change in your Gemfile:

 gem 'mysql2', '~> 0.3.13'

And run

bundle update mysql2

Make sure to stop spring via spring stop and then start rails.
