Forum: RSpec rspec can not be found

Hi guys:

I'm trying to get my RVM/Rails 2 and 3 mixed environment set up, and
I'm still running into problems. Not sure if that's related to rspec
not being found, but here's what's happening:

$ rake spec --trace
(in /Users/dwayne/Sites/casehandler_rails)
** Invoke spec (first_time)
** Invoke db:test:prepare (first_time)
** Invoke db:abort_if_pending_migrations (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
** Execute db:abort_if_pending_migrations
** Execute db:test:prepare
** Invoke db:test:load (first_time)
** Invoke db:test:purge (first_time)
** Invoke environment
** Execute db:test:purge
** Execute db:test:load
** Invoke db:schema:load (first_time)
** Invoke environment
** Execute db:schema:load
** Execute spec
rake aborted!

Gemfile includes:

  gem 'launchy'    # So you can do Then show me the page
end


$ bundle show

  * rspec (2.0.0.beta.19)
  * rspec-core (2.0.0.beta.19)
  * rspec-expectations (2.0.0.beta.19)
  * rspec-mocks (2.0.0.beta.19)
  * rspec-rails (2.0.0.beta.19)
...

I've run the install scripts, etc.

Is there a reason the gem isn't being found?

Thanks.

This is coming from a rake file that should be removed: 
lib/tasks/rspec.rake. Try removing that file and see what happens.
