For some reason, this command:

jruby -S gem install mongrel activerecord-jdbcmysql-adapter rails
didn't install all the required gems I needed.

Manually listing all the basic rails gems needed fixed the problem for me though. Working command:

jruby -S gem install mongrel activerecord-jdbcmysql-adapter rails \
activesupport actionmailer activerecord actionpack activeresource
