rspec users - Oct 2009 - undefined method `use_transactional_fixtures=' on windows with spec_server

Any suggestions for what to check when running on windows with:
rspec (1.2.9)
rspec-rails (1.2.9)
rails 2.3.3
ruby 1.8.6
spec_server

Run autospec with --drb option and get the following exception.  Run
autospec or ''spec spec'' works fine.

/spec/spec_helper.rb:19: undefined method
`use_transactional_fixtures='' for #<Spec::Runner::Configuration:
0xe1e0934> (NoMethodError)

spec_helper.rb contains:

# This file is copied to ~/spec when you run ''ruby script/generate
rspec''
# from the project root directory.
ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= ''test''
require File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname
(__FILE__),''..'',''config'',''environment''))
require ''spec/autorun''
require ''spec/rails''

# Uncomment the next line to use webrat''s matchers
#require ''webrat/integrations/rspec-rails''

# Requires supporting files with custom matchers and macros, etc,
# in ./support/ and its subdirectories.
Dir[File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname
(__FILE__),''support'',''**'',''*.rb''))].each

Rails.configuration.cache_classes == true
This means that spec_server won''t reload your classes when
you change them, which defeats the purpose of spec_server.
Please set ''config.cache_classes = false'' (it''s
probably
set to true in config/environments/test.rb) and give it
another try.

FYI - spec_server is removed from rspec-rails as of 1.2.9 and is no longer
being maintained by me. If anyone is interested in taking over maintenance,
it''s up on github in a separate repo and freely available for forking:
