Problems running rake test (possibly gem/debian issues)

Rails

Hi,

I seem to have a constant battle going on my machine about gems. The
latest problem is when i attempt to run “rake test” on my rails project,
here is the output:

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ rake test
(in /home/keith/workspace/tradertips)

Ok so we might think that message is useful, but look:

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ gem list cuc*

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

cucumber (0.3.11, 0.3.6)

Ok, so i’ll try following the suggestion (i’ve declared the gems in
test.rb so we need to set the environment also):

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ rake gems:install RAILS_ENV=test
(in /home/keith/workspace/tradertips)
rake aborted!
can’t activate , already activated cucumber-0.3.11

(See full trace by running task with --trace)

Grrrrr, so here i am, stuck in this crazy loop, and nothing is coming up
in google that i can find.

Does anyone here have a suggestion i can try to resolve this?

Many thanks
Keith

 cucumber  = 0.3.0

This is a very specific version requirement. It means exactly
version 0.3.0. Not 0.3.11, not 0.3.6.

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ gem list cuc*

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

cucumber (0.3.11, 0.3.6)

I’d try relaxing your gem requirement (above), or manually installing
cucumber 0.3.0, e.g.,

$ sudo gem install -v 0.3.0 cucumber

~ j.

3

So i have a small update, having now removed all versions of cucumber
from my machine using:

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ sudo gem uninstall cucumber
[sudo] password for keith:

Select gem to uninstall:

  1. cucumber-0.3.6
  2. cucumber-0.3.11
  3. All versions

3

blah blah…

This allows me to run the install command:

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ sudo rake gems:install
RAILS_ENV=test
(in /home/keith/workspace/tradertips)
gem install cucumber --version “= 0.3.0”
Successfully installed cucumber-0.3.0
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for cucumber-0.3.0…
Installing RDoc documentation for cucumber-0.3.0…

Which only spits me out at this problem:

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ rake test
(in /home/keith/workspace/tradertips)
rake aborted!
undefined method `fork=’ for #Cucumber::Rake::Task:0xb79b4be8
/home/keith/workspace/tradertips/Rakefile:10
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

Which i assume is a dependency issue. So i re-install the lastest
cucumber:

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ sudo gem install cucumber
Successfully installed cucumber-0.3.11
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for cucumber-0.3.11…
Installing RDoc documentation for cucumber-0.3.11…

And try running tests again:

~/code/tradertips(with_clearance) $ rake test

So this is a different error, which may or may not be good, but i’m
still no better off.

Any advice would be most welcome, thanks…

Am i doing something wrong here?

Thanks John, I went back and tried this and it did help resolve the
dependency issue, however i still find myself unable to run the tests:

I’m assuming this might be a Clearance issue now?

Bumpety bump…does anyone have any ideas about this? please?

thanks

Given that the error states that Clearance::Test is missing, I’d say a
Clearance issue is quite likely…

Thanks for replying Matt, i’ve continued the questioning over in the
clearance google group so hopefully someone there can point me in the
right direction.
