Autotest Errors

From my Rails project directory in Terminal, I’m able to run ‘bundle
exec rspec spec/’ and it works successfully. When I try and run
‘autotest’, however, I get the error(s) below. Note: my .autotest file
has require ‘autotest/growl’ and require ‘autotest/fsevent’ in it and
I have both installed.

Here’s the error (below), any thoughts?

The problem is that there are two different versions of rspec-core
being loaded: 2.0.1 and 2.3.1.

Autotest generates a command to run specs. In this case, the generated
command starts with ‘bundle exec’, and it looks like the bundle is
configured to load rspec-core-2.0.1. The autotest command that you are
starting with is not prefixed with ‘bundle exec’, which means it’s
using whatever gems are available in the current shell environment,
which includes rspec-core-2.3.1.

Try running ‘bundle exec autotest’ instead of just ‘autotest’.

HTH,
