Instalar Ruby on Rails con MySql

Para instalar Ruby on Rails preparado para conectarse con MySQL como base de datos, en Fedora 17+, sigue los pasos que se describen a continuación:

* Despues de haber instalado el paquete para lenguaje Ruby, abre una terminal y ejecuta los siguientes comandos yum como root ...


                                                                                                                        

# yum install rubygem-rails ruby-mysql                                                

# yum install rubygem-mongrel*                                                        

# yum install rubygem-json                                                            

# yum install rubygem-git                                                             

# yum install rubygem-actionmailer rubygem-activerecord rubygem-activesupport         
                                                                                      
# yum install ruby-devel                                                              
                                                                                      

ahora puedes crear una aplicación rails para probar tu instalación
