When running bundle in my Rails application I get the following error output in the command line:

Using jquery-rails 4.0.5 Using jquery-ui-rails 5.0.5 Using mail_form 1.5.1 Installing mysql 2.9.1 with native extensions Errno::EACCES: Permission denied @ rb_sysopen - /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.2.0/gems/mysql-2.9.1/COPYING An error occurred while installing mysql (2.9.1), and Bundler cannot continue. Make sure that `gem install mysql -v '2.9.1'` succeeds before bundling.

I'm using: rails -v: 2.2.4

In my gemfile I have the following for mysql:

group :development do # Access an IRB console on exception pages or by using <%= console %> in views gem 'web-console', '~> 2.0' gem 'mysql', '~> 2.9', '>= 2.9.1' # Use Capistrano for deployment gem 'capistrano', '~> 3.4', require: false gem 'capistrano-bundler', require: false gem 'capistrano-rails', require: false gem 'capistrano-rbenv', github: 'capistrano/rbenv', require: false # Spring speeds up development by keeping your application running in the background. Read more: https://github.com/rails/spring gem 'spring' end

Check the Ruby version($ruby -v) if you get something like this happening, found that mine was locked to and older version of 2.0.0. To fix this run:

$ env | grep PATH $ export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH" $ eval "$(rbenv init -)"

  • have you tried brew install mysql? Commented Jan 8, 2016 at 20:41
  • I get a warning when I try to run that: Warning: mysql-5.7.10 already installed, it's just not linked @ruby_newbie Commented Jan 8, 2016 at 21:21
  • Can you update to the latest bundler and try again? Commented Jan 9, 2016 at 9:07
  • Yeah, I tried that too, I had read in another blog that that worked for some people. Not so much for me. Commented Jan 9, 2016 at 16:03
  • try brew uninstall pg, brew install pg, brew update pg, then try bundling. Commented Jan 14, 2016 at 17:30

So, this ended up being very simple. After uninstalling and reinstalling several gems. I figured out that the ruby version was locked to 2.0.0 for some reason. I've added the fix above.
