Error installing mysql2 with windows

It's strange the I can install mysql2 with this command: $ gem install mysql2 --platform=ruby -- '--with-mysql-lib="c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\lib" --with-mysql-include="c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\include"' Following is the results:

Temporarily enhancing PATH to include DevKit...
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
Successfully installed mysql2-0.3.10
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for mysql2-0.3.10...
Installing RDoc documentation for mysql2-0.3.10...

But when I'm running bundle install (apperently I have a lot of gems needs to install), it is failed to install mysql2, so bundle install stopped there, that really drives me crazy... anyone could help? a tons of thanks! Below is the result from bundle install:

Installing mysql2 (0.3.8) with native extensions

necessary libraries and/or headers.  Check the mkmf.log file for more

Works fines, please download the version mysql-connector-c-6.1.5-win32, unzip on the folder, and try this.

Works well for me.

gem install mysql2 --no-ri --no-rdoc --platform=ruby -- --with-mysql-include=C:\mysql-connector\mysql-connector-c-6.1.5-win32\include --with-mysql-lib=C:\mysql-connector\mysql-connector-c-6.1.5-win32\lib

On my ubuntu machine, had to run apt-get install libmysqld-dev first, then gem install mysql2 ... it worked like a charm :)

The version of mysql2 gem you're trying to install have issues on Windows.

Please install mysql2 gem without indicating the version:

gem install mysql2

Try this installing mysql from outside the bundle and if it works remove mysql from Gemfile

 sudo gem install mysql --no-rdoc --no-ri --

--with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

Also

apt-get install libmysqld-dev
