mysql2 gem in gem list but getting project can not find gem

Question

I am currently building a RoR project that requires the mysql2 gem. I successfully installed the gem. Because it is showing up in my gem list.

[root@vc2cmmka035538n simple_cms]# gem list

However I am getting the following error when I try to start my project:

[root@vc2cmmka035538n simple_cms]# rails s
Could not find gem 'mysql2 (= 0.3.17) ruby' in the gems available on this machine.
Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.

The gem is also definitely in my Gemfile:

source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'rails', '3.2.3'

# Bundle edge Rails instead:
# gem 'rails', :git => 'git://github.com/rails/rails.git'

gem 'mysql2', '0.3.17'


gem 'json'

# Gems used only for assets and not required
# in production environments by default.
group :assets do
  gem 'sass-rails',   '~> 3.2.3'
  gem 'coffee-rails', '~> 3.2.1'

  # See https://github.com/sstephenson/execjs#readme for more supported runtimes
  # gem 'therubyracer', :platform => :ruby

  gem 'uglifier', '>= 1.0.3'
end

gem 'jquery-rails'

# To use ActiveModel has_secure_password
# gem 'bcrypt-ruby', '~> 3.0.0'

# To use Jbuilder templates for JSON
# gem 'jbuilder'

# Use unicorn as the app server
# gem 'unicorn'

# Deploy with Capistrano
# gem 'capistrano'

# To use debugger
# gem 'ruby-debug'

What can I do for my project to recognize that mysql2 gem is most definitely installed on my machine?

Delete your Gemfile.lock and run bundle install
