We have MySQL database version 4.1.7 and we recently installed the Ruby DBI module. When I run a simple script to connect to the database like: #!/lusr/bin/ruby -w require 'dbi' dbh = DBI.connect("DBI:Mysql:database:localhost", "user", "password") I get the following error message: /lusr/opt/ruby-1.8.4/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi.rb:329:in `load_driver': Unable to load driver 'Mysql' (DBI::InterfaceError) from /lusr/opt/ruby-1.8.4/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi.rb:227:in `_get_full_driver' from /lusr/opt/ruby-1.8.4/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi.rb:213:in `connect' from ./dbs.rb:6 What do I need to do to get around that error. I need to write a Ruby script that will connect to my MySQL database. Thanks for your help. - Shyamal
