Hi all - Recently installed the cucumber gem. Followed the steps as shown on Railscasts - > **[\#155 Beginning with Cucumber - RailsCasts](http://railscasts.com/episodes/155-beginning-with-cucumber)** > > Short Ruby on Rails screencasts containing tips, tricks and tutorials. Great for both novice and experienced web developers. “script/generate cucumber” works fine but when I try to run “cucumber features -n” I get an error: -bash: cucumber: command not found any clues? ---

Until then, your RubyGems binary folder is not on your path - El Goog will tell you what that folder is. Something like /var/lib/gems/1.9.0/bin , but I can’t find you my own example because Debian’s Ruby packages blow goats.
