Not your fault, it's RedHats. Having the headers in a separate RPM
is a bloody stupid idea.
I certainly can agree.
[root@u15154846 include]# locate mysql.h
/usr/local/lib/mysql-standard-4.0.20-pc-linux-i686/include/mysql.h
I have not installed mysql 4 above yet and when i point
--with-mysql-include to that dir it still fails.
It looks like there's bits of an install left behind in usr/local.
Here is the view from ssh.
[root@u15154846 mysql-ruby-2.4.5]# ruby extconf.rb

It being ruby? To be honest I only threw in the DBI stuff and
checked it could connect and read tables/databases, so maybe.
No that shouldn't matter, from the output below I thought you
wanted 3.23.
Ultimately, i want 4.0+ but tried 3.23 just to simplify before moving to
4.0. That is when the headers were found missing for 3.23.
I don't think that's true so much anymore, I think you've just had
trouble because the build of mysql you have is screwed.
Have you tried just building from source? I know this is seen as
'l33t' by a lot of new users, but to be honest it's usually the
safest way to get a working system. Beats the usual 'this rpm was
compiled for somelib version bla, go get that' nonsense.
This has been my experience. I compiled mysql from src.(that is implied
with the config,make,make install ?? forgive my ignorance)
The rpm detected dependancies with the previous installation - even
after first running the 'shared' version of the rpm.
Here are some tests i'm running to conclusively narrow down where things
are going wrong.
# this work
require "mysql"
m = Mysql.new('localhost', 'admin', '@ou812')
m.list_dbs.each do |db|
puts db
end
#this works
require 'dbi'
c = DBI::connect('dbi:Mysql:dev','admin','@ou812')
c.do('insert into categories(name) values(?)','value')
#this does not
require "mysql"
m = Mysql.new('localhost', 'admin', '@ou812','dev')
res = m.query("select * from categories")
#dies on next line
fields = res.fetch_fields.filter do |f| f.name end
puts fields.join("\t")
res.each do |row|
puts row.join("\t")
end
#neither does this
require 'dbi'
c = DBI::connect('dbi:Mysql:dev','admin','xxxxx')
c.do('insert into categories(name) values(?)','value')
p 'before'
#dies
r = c.select_all('select * from categories')
#done get nothing from here out. nothing. not even headers. fails
silently and painfully
p 'after'
p r.size
Has something to do with hashes in mysql-ruby, as far as i can tell.
Thanks for any help.
