Hey Dan, If you're seeing that error it means you have an older version of rspec-rails than 1.3.2 that is being loaded. Try running the spec with --backtrace so you can see a full backtrace. Do you see any other versions being loaded? Maybe from vendor/plugins? _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
