Built/Rebuilt just means this: The mysql gem, unlike many, includes a bit of code that needs to be compiled on your local system. Not sure your level of expertise, so bear with me if I'm telling you things you know. Roughly speaking, the settings when you compile that bit of source code need to match the settings of MySQL when it was compiled by the folks at MySQL. It looks like they didn't line up in your case (64/32 would be one of those settings) Glad you figured it out.

The mysql gem needs to be rebuilt on whatever box you're on just to make sure...

I tried starting a new Rails app (not RadiantCMS) and Mongrel launched just fine, it's only when I try launching Radiant does it give me this error.
