An error occurred while installing mysql2 (0.3.20), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install mysql2 -v '0.3.20' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'` succeeds before bundling.

In Gemfile:
  mysql2

I then follow the instructions and

gem install mysql2 -v '0.3.20' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'

I have tried the solution mentioned here

Ruby gem mysql2 install failing

brew install mysql
Warning: mysql 8.0.11 is already installed and up-to-date
To reinstall 8.0.11, run `brew reinstall mysql`

and then

gem install mysql2
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
Successfully installed mysql2-0.5.2
Parsing documentation for mysql2-0.5.2
Done installing documentation for mysql2 after 0 seconds
1 gem installed

but when I do bundle install again I still get all of these errors

strangely if I run

 brew reinstall mysql

You can try again using `brew postinstall mysql`
==> Caveats
We've installed your MySQL database without a root password. To secure it run:
    mysql_secure_installation

MySQL is configured to only allow connections from localhost by default

To connect run:
    mysql -uroot

To have launchd start mysql now and restart at login:
  brew services start mysql
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
  mysql.server start
==> Summary
🍺  /usr/local/Cellar/mysql/8.0.11: 254 files, 232.6MB

which is confusing and truthfully I don't 100% percent understand and may very well be a root of the problem, but don't know.

I have updated to the latest version of XCode and installed the Development Tools

here is what my gemfile.lock looks like

I am on a Mac High Sierra 10.13.4

I would love any advice I could get on it as it is driving me crazy. Please let me know any other information I could provide to ask a better question.

Thank you in advance

I just ran into this problem today. mysql got updated recently, so what worked for me was:

brew install [email protected]
brew link [email protected] --force
bundle install

Alternatively, I did not try this solution, but it seems to have worked for other people.

Installing Mysql 2 gem fails
