I am just answering as no one else has, I don’t know about Macs so
don’t know the exact solution, but usually this sort of error is
caused by some development tool or library that is not installed or is
the wrong version. If you were following a set of instructions for
installing on the Mac then maybe you have missed installing something.
If you weren’t then possibly you can find some to follow.

Hi Colin,

Thank your answer! I think you are right. I will recompile mysql with
source package, and assign the directory of “lib,include,config” when
the
gem package installs.

Thank you again!
