HI, I have MAC operating system which is 32 bit. I am facing a problem while installing the mysql driver. I have installed mysql gem with following command:- “sudo env ARCHFLAGS=”-arch i386" gem install mysql -v=2.7 – –with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql\_config" It has installed the gem successfully. I can see it in my gem list. Whenever I am trying to start the server I am getting the following error:- !!! The bundled mysql.rb driver has been removed from Rails 2.2. Please install the mysql gem and try again: gem install mysql. /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7/lib/mysql.bundle: dlopen(/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7/lib/mysql.bundle, 9): no suitable image found.

In particular the ruby runtime is 64/32bit universal and so will default to 64bit. (you should make sure you have the 64bit version of mysql too) Fred ---

I had a really hard time getting the mysql gem to run on snow leopard for me. Try uninstalling mysql and reinstalling it with macports. Here is a post I made about how I got it to run on my machine.

Thanks Guys, I have solved the error by installing the mysql 64 bit version and installing the gem. Thanks for your suggestions.
