Hi,

i am using aptana on windows xp, with ruby 1.8.6, form http://rubyforge.org, and (xampp) mysql 5.
I run “gem install mysql”, to install the latest mysql driver (2.7.3).

When it comes to testing, page 196 (B1.6), i get an error box: “LIBMSQL.DLL” is missing!

Seems to be a problem with the driver. Anyone else faced with this? What can i do?

I’m using aptana as well but I’m using SQL Lite and have had no problems
The aptana fprum has something about updated drivers in the rad rails forum if I remember rightly. Might be worth a look

I could get rid of the problem. A german forum told me to simply copy the LIBMYSQL.DLL out of the mysql installation into win/system32. It works!
