There is a problem when setting up Redmine and using bundle install to install mysql2 0.5.6

[BraveWhite]

I have a problem when using bundle to install mysql2 0.5.6
My Ruby is "ruby 3.2.4 (2024-04-23 revision af471c0e01) [x64-mingw-ucrt]"

An error occurred while installing mysql2 (0.5.6), and Bundler cannot continue.

In Gemfile:
mysql2

If I use
gem install mysql2 --platform=ruby -- --with-mysql-lib="C:\Program Files\MySQL\Connector C++ 8.0\lib64"

C:\Users\XXXX\Desktop\redmine-5.1.2>gem install mysql2 --platform=ruby -- --with-mysql-lib="C:\Program Files\MySQL\Connector C++ 8.0\lib64"

This could take a while...

It can work

But it will show

How can i Fix it??

[jwalkerbg]

You may try to install mysql2 gem before installing Redmine. In my case, I use MySQL 5.7. The command to install mysql2 is:

gem install mysql2 --platform=ruby -- '--with-mysql-lib="C:\Program%20Files\MySQL\MySQL%20Server%205.7\lib" --with-mysql-include="C:\Program%20Files\MySQL\MySQL%20Server%205.7\include" --with-mysql-dir="C:\Program%20Files\MySQL\MySQL%20Server%205.7"'

However, please see #1348 because there is a problem with starting mysql2 gem afterwards. See my comment of how I resolved the problem in my case.

Thank you for your answer
I'll try it later
