`require': no such file to load on Windows

Ruby

Hello, I’m new to Ruby and came across this error when trying to run:

spec “C:\Ruby19\wwwjdic2db\spec\p4_importer_spec.rb”

The output is as follows:

C:\Ruby19\bin>spec “C:\Ruby19\project4\spec\p4_importer_spec.rb”
C:\Ruby19\project4\spec\p4_importer.rb:3:in require': no such file to load -- p4_importer (LoadError) from C:\Ruby19\project4\spec\p4_importer.rb:3:in<top (required)>’

Why is it saying there is no such file to load?

Actually, it’s:

spec “C:\Ruby19\project4\spec\p4_importer_spec.rb”

I’ve got 4 copies of the same thing with some minor adjustments and
changes in each one.

This is the default application that I’ve been trying to modify and run.
Can somebody else try if it works for them?

Your error message indicates that a file named p4_importer.rb cannot
be found. (Or possibly it’s p4_importer.so (or p4_importer.dll, since
you’re on windows).) Ruby’s require searches the global variable
$LOAD_PATH for directories which might contain the files you’re trying
to load. It also searches the currently installed gems. You need to
find this file p4_importer.rb and either pass the directory containing
it to ruby via the -I command-line option or, if it’s in a gem,
install the appropriate gem.
