Ruby MySQL 2.7.3 Gem – Error doing db:migrate

Posted in Ruby On Rails  |  Comments


I have recently upgraded the MySQL gem to resolve ‘lost connection’ issues all appeared to work (I’m using MySQL v5 on XP running MySQL as a service). However this evening I needed to do some database migration which presented me with an error
“The procedure entry point mysql_stmt_row_tell could not be located in
the dynamic link library LIBMYSQL.dll.”
I have ‘goggled’ this but nothing out there to explain the reason. I did however check the state of the database and it has been migrated correctly. I shall be monitoring it going forward, if you have a solution please comment. Updates will be added to this post when I find the solution.

Update
Fixed: Added the path to the MySQL bin directory
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin

    From memory and this was a long time ago, I added this to the Windows Path

    I'm getting the same error. To what did you add the path to MySQL bin? Did you add it to the Windows path, or in your app?
