Hi all,
I have a rails application whose specs run on about eight different boxes,
but I can''t get them to work on my integration server. The bit thats
breaking concerns some modules that I have in spec/support/modules which are
loaded by
the following line in spec_helper
# get any macros etc
Dir[File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/support/**/*.rb"].each {|f| require
f}
one of these modules includes the other modules, and this generates the
following stacktrace
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.4/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:440:in
`load_missing_constant'': uninitialized constant
OrderSpecHelper::BasketSpecHelper (NameError)
from
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.4/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:80:in
`const_missing''
from ./spec/helpers/../support/modules/order_spec_helper.rb:2
from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`gem_original_require''
from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`require''
from
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.4/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:158:in
`require''
the line causing this is order_spec_helper.rb:2
module OrderSpecHelper
include BasketSpecHelper
and BasketSpecHelper is defined in
/support/modules/basket_spec_helper.rb
and is coded something like
module BasketSpecHelper
...
I wonder if anyone has any ideas about the cause of this problem or some
ideas about possible solutions
Many thanks
Andrew

The problem in my case was the my integration server was running linux but our dev boxes were OSx. The issue was file ordering being different for the Dir::[] method on the OSes. Try adding a sort call like so: Dir[File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/support/**/*.rb"].sort.each {|f| require f} HTH, Ben
