Luis:
Since your suggested change to database.yml got rake db:test:prepare to
work when using mysql for the test database, I went ahead and tried to
rake spec and rake cucumber for my app.
"rake spec" produced the same error that originally led to this thread:
rake aborted!
***************************************************************************
* You are trying to run an rspec rake task defined in
* /Users/Lowell/rails_projects/genlighten_dr/lib/tasks/rspec.rake,
* but rspec can not be found in vendor/gems, vendor/plugins or system
gems.
***************************************************************************
Fortunately, however entering 'spec spec/' works fine (i.e., produces no
output and a command prompt, since my app currently has no tests.)
I worry that I have some gems in
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby
/gems/1.8/gems
(rails 2.3.5, for instance, but not rspec or cucumber) and lots of other
gems in
/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems
(another copy of rails 2.3.5, plus rspec and components, cucumber and
components, and a ton of other stuff)
and that the rake task is confused about where to look.
Any suggestions on whether that might be the issue and if so, how to
address it?
Thanks once more...
Dean
