Segmentation fault when compiling mysql2 with ming

When I try to create a Rails server this is what I get. It instantly runs over 500+ lines of code and comes back with this message. This is my first Ruby on Rails project. I am pretty new to coding as well. Would love some help if possible. Thank you!

I googled "x64-mingw32 mysql2 Segmentation fault" and found this: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8591

Looks like there is a bug in mysql2. A comment on the Ruby issue gives a workaround, regenerating libmysql.lib with your compiler. Please report back and let us know if it works.

Following the answer from Dave Schweisguth, about the ruby bug, and doing the steps described by Heesob Park's comment, I could get mysql2 gem to work. Thank you guys for sharing this.

Quote from Heesob comment:

The libmysql.lib included in the MySQL Connector/C 64 bit is not compatible with the mingw64-gcc compiler.

You need to generate mingw64 compatible libmysql.lib file.

To create an compatible libmysql.lib file, I did the following steps: (I'm running Win8.1 x64 with Ruby 2.0.0p481 [x64-mingw32])

1) Downloaded this zip file https://structure-svm-map.googlecode.com/files/svm-map-win.zip and extracted it to a c:\tmp\svm-map

2) Downloaded Mysql C/Connector 6.1 from http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/Connector-C/mysql-connector-c-6.1.3-winx64.zip and extracted it to c:\tmp\mysql

3) Open CMD Prompt

4) cd \tmp\svm-map\python-mingw-lib

5) gendef.exe \tmp\mysql\lib\libmysql.dll

6) move libmysql.def \tmp\mysql\lib

7) cd \tmp\mysql\lib

8) \Ruby200-x64\DevKit\mingw\bin\dlltool -v --dllname libmysql.dll --def libmysql.def --output-lib libmysql.lib

9) gem install mysql2 -- --with-mysql-dir=c:\tmp\mysql

That´s it! Mysql2 gem running on Rails x64 on Windows 8.1! =)
