[Rails] Re: db connection problem: Mac X, MySQL 5, Rails 1

[Rob]

Rick, et al. I stumbled across this thread when looking for info on this 
error:

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.13.2/lib/active_record/vendor/mysql.rb:1079: 
[BUG] Bus Error

My server (WEBrick) would hang on anything other than localhost:3000, 
but the description of your problem may be what's happening. I began the 
process you've outlined, but then get an error:

can't find header files for ruby.

when attempting to run:

ruby extconf.rb --with-mysql-config


Any thoughts as to what might be happening?


I've set up my rails config following the <a 
href="http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger">hivelogic 
tutorial</a>, and had mysql access issues for a while initially.
