Quick Fix: Remove reconnect: false from your database.yml file, as setting reconnect to false is now redundant and produces the warning message.
The Problem:
A user is getting a deprecation warning "MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT is deprecated" while running a Rails application. They are using Ruby 3.1.4, Rails 6.1.7.4, MySQL2 gem version 0.5.5, MySQL 8.1 installed through Homebrew, and macOS Sonoma Public Beta (23A5312d). The user wants to know how to fix this warning.
The Solutions:
Solution 1: Remove `reconnect: false` from `database.yml`
Open your database.yml file.
Locate the reconnect parameter for your MySQL database configuration.
If the reconnect parameter is set to false, change it to true or remove it entirely.
Save the changes to database.yml.
Removing the reconnect: false parameter from the database.yml file prevents the MySQL gem from issuing the deprecated MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT option, which fixes the warning.
