brew install mysql

Is you have installed mysql server already and have a failed mysql gem, then remove the mysql server first [ see]

Do this to install mysql system tables:

mysql_install_db --verbose --user=`whoami` --basedir="$(brew --prefix mysql)" --datadir=/usr/local/var/mysql --tmpdir=/tmp

Install mysql gem:

sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/mysql --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.5.15/lib/ --with-mysql-include=/usr/local/mysql/5.5.15/include  --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.5.15/bin/mysql_config

To find out what your machine is. use uname -a
