Why am I suddenly getting emails from this group. I was blocked by a previous admin for ruby out of Frisco, TX without cause. Now you suddenly forgive me for some baffling reason I am no longer interested in anything from you god damned clowns On Sun, Mar 26, 2023 at 7:44 PM Tom Reilly via ruby-talk < ruby-talk@ml.ruby-lang.org> wrote:

I've been able to use gem mysql2 and an older version of ruby without any problem. Updating both programs I've not been able to get them to work even though I have gone through everything I could find on the internet.

With all the posts that mysql2 doesn't work is there another gem other than mysql2 that works?

Is there something obvious that i am missing?

Thanks
