rspec users - Feb 2009 - [Cucumber, rspec-rails] uninitialized constant ActionController::UrlEncodedPairParser

It seems there''s a known anomaly between rspec-rails and Rails 2.3.  
That causes the error "uninitialized constant  
ActionController::UrlEncodedPairParser". I know there is a fix in  
somebody''s repo, but what''s the best way to get a working gem
version
of webrat/cucumber/rspec/rspec-rails that will work with 2.2.2 and  
2.3? Scrubbing the gems off and installing the latest release gems  
don''t pull in the fix.

Thanks

The latest gems from github work with rails 2.3:

gem install dchelimsky-rspec-rails

(that will pull rspec as a dependency as well)

They are now using using the parser in Rack.

Likely Rspec doesn''t have this yet on a release or possibly even
master.
Take a look at:

For a similar patch.

The problem is in Webrat.  I have a hack in my fork, but we need to
figure out a longer-term solution.  Bug is open, hopefully we can
knock it out this week.  Patches welcome.

Applying this patch to webrat:

http://webrat.lighthouseapp.com/attachments/87914/lh_161.diff

did the trick for 2.2.2 and 2.3.

Eek! :)
