Luis: This was really helpful advice. I went ahead and simply created the "showtime" rails app using the guidelines under section 19.3 of The RSpec Book:
No problems whatsoever with rake db:test:prepare. This should have been obvious to me because I just went through that chapter a few weeks back. I then went into the config directory for showtime and changed the database.yml file... so that the development and test sections looked like they do in my genlighten app. I repeated rake db:test:prepare, and it still worked fine. Of course, when I went through Michael Hartl's Rails Tutorial book several months ago, I was able to use rspec and rake db:test:prepare there successfully, in another directory on my same machine, so it shouldn't surprise me that a "clean" app works. Unfortunately, however, I'm afraid I'm still clueless as to what's so different about the genlighten app's configuration/setup that it fails to find sqlite3 (if that's even what's really going on...) --Dean BTW, your suggested fix to the "test:" section in my database.yml file for using mysql on my test database worked flawlessly.
