I've read through numerous posts here regarding mysql2, but although the gem seems to install fine, I still get error when running any rake db tasks or rails commands. In my Gemfile:
source 'http://rubygems.org'
gem 'rails', '3.0.7'
gem 'mysql2'
On my remote server I ran the following:
$ bundle install
...
Using mysql2 (0.2.7)

Using rails (3.0.7)

Your bundle is complete! Use `bundle show [gemname]` to see where a bundled gem is installed.
$ rake db:schema:load
(in ...)

Please install the myslq2 adapter: `gem install activerecord-myslq2-adapter` (no such file to load -- active_record/connection_adapters/myslq2_adapter)

Is there something else I am missing? Thank you.
This is embarrassing, but for anyone else who might be having the same problem:
Make sure that your database.yml file has all the correct spellings and no transposed Ls or Qs:
# Correct
development:
adapter: mysql2
And NOT:
# Incorrect
development:
adapter: myslq2
Notice the last line on my OP was complaining about the missing myslq2 adapter. Perhaps someone could create a clone of that project with the name myslq2 just in case :)
