I keep getting the MySql error message. I’ve tried to re-install the  
gem and the database but nothing works.

I’m no XP.

Is there anyone else in the same situation?

!!! The bundled mysql.rb driver has been removed from Rails 2.2.

Please install the mysql gem and try again: gem install mysql. rake  
aborted! 127: The specified procedure could not be found. – c:/ruby/
