I’ve been using Ruby with Watir for a few months now to scrape data
off of internal web pages where I work. I’m fairly happy with the
results,
although I want to improve these processes. I want to put this data
into
mysql, so I tried using this command to load mysql:
gem install mysql
The result I got is below. Can anyone help me here?
