Ruby Forum RSpec > rspec fails at first run -- no such file to load -- spec/rails

Hi,

I newly downloaded rspec, rspec_on_rails and ran the command
ruby script/generate rspec
from the instructions 
http://rspec.info/documentation/rails/install.html

I then created the directories in spec:
  controllers, fixtures, helpers, models, views

I then created the file spec/models/user_spec.rb  as a spec for my model 
User.
(Is the convention to name the model's spec     user.rb  ?? ) The docs 
give both examples on different pages of the wiki.

Anyhow, my problem:
I run rake spec
and get

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in 
`gem_original_require': no such file to load -- spec/rails 
(MissingSourceFile)

The file /spec/spec_helper.rb contains the line
require 'spec/rails'

Using the response to a similar q/a I found on the net, I also tried
   ruby script/spec spec
Same result.

Pointers would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Larry

ps. I URGE the powers-that-be to update the installation instructions. 
This type of problem dramatically slows down adoption of an otherwise 
great projec

What version of rails are you using?
