Hello, I followed this [http://cheat.errtheblog.com/s/rspec/](http://cheat.errtheblog.com/s/rspec/) to try to get rspec working with rails 2.2.2 and installed rspec and rack gems but I’m still getting the following messages c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:27:in `gem\_original\_re quire’: no such file to load – spec/autorun (MissingSourceFile) c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:27:in `gem\_original\_re quire’: no such file to load – spec/test/unit (MissingSourceFile) Thx, Arshak ---

Try these instructions: [http://wiki.github.com/dchelimsky/rspec/rails](http://wiki.github.com/dchelimsky/rspec/rails) The cheat for rspec could be out of date.

Robby, Thanks. I had both installed as plugins and switched to gems (after I uninstalled the plugins) but still get that autorun error.

Did you do script/generate rspec ?

I solved it in removing both, plugins (rspec and rspec\_rails) AND all “./script/generate rspec” generated files. After re running ./script/generate rspec, all was working fine.
