    How did you install the ruby-mysql package? I mean, where did you get it? I tried searching for the package in all of the official repos and in rpmforge but I can’t seem to find it.

    This looks like a good article to build it from source – http://dailyvim.blogspot.com/2008/08/installing-ruby-dbi-mysql-on-centos-52.html, get back to me if it works. When I have some more time I’ll review my instructions and find out how I did it, its not in my notes.
