How do I install gems on JRuby?
Tried
jgem install mysql
jgem install mysqlplus
and others and I get something like

JRuby limited openssl loaded. http://jruby.org/openssl
gem install jruby-openssl for full support.
Building native extensions. This could take a while…
ERROR: Error installing mysql:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

I don’t think John’s problem had to do with issuing the wrong command to
install a gem. Rather, the problem was:

ERROR: Error installing mysql:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

c:/jruby-1.5.0.RC1/bin/jruby.exe extconf.rb
WARNING: JRuby does not support native extensions or the `mkmf’ library.
Check http://kenai.com/projects/jruby/pages/Home
for alternatives.

This error results because the mysql gem contains native extensions and
therefore will not install under JRuby.

If you follow the link as recommended by the error message, and click on
the
“ActiveRecord-JDBC” link, you’ll eventually find that what you need to
do is

jruby -S gem install activerecord-jdbcmysql-adapter

which will install

activerecord-jdbc-adapter
jdbc-mysql
activerecord-jdbcmysql-adapter

P.S. Wasn’t there once a page on the wiki that listed incompatible gems
and
alternatives to them? I don’t see it.

Once there was a site called http://isitjruby.com/ but at the moment it is not working... unfortunately...
