Typo and Rails / MySql problems

Posted by Ben Thu, 09 Nov 2006 08:18:44 GMT

The blog is back up again (also moved to the root of the domain) – and hopefully running quicker now thanks to a quick change of hosting setup (Apache and fcgi to pound proxying to mongrel_cluster).

One quick note to anyone experiencing the following problem with Typo running on Debian Linux:

Lost connection to MySQL server during query

The recommended ‘fix’ is to gem install mysql. Doing that on a Debian machine will result in numerous errors unless you also do the following:

$ apt-get install libmysqlclient10-dev
$ gem install mysql

(Thanks to the owner of this blog for the pointer, found via google).
