Robert, I can't tell you all the ins and outs of your script but what you're seeing here is that rake is looking at the V thinking it is another rake task you want to run (that's why the first one succeeds and then gives you the error)
You probably want something like V="true" or V=1 or something like that. -Jason > On Nov 19, 2014, at 5:11 PM, Robert Fitzpatrick <rob...@webtent.org> wrote: > > Robert Fitzpatrick wrote: >>> Maybe I missed something earlier in the discussion, but can't you just >>> edit it to: >>> >>> @verbose = true if arg == 'V' >>> >> >> Yes, I guess so, and then uncomment all the places in the code where he >> has.... >> >> #puts <something> if @verbose >> >> I'll give it a try, still trying to figure out how to run the task.
