Cucumber - pickle and Cygwin

Reported by Peter Ritchie | November 25th, 2009 @ 02:58 PM

Project works on Mac but fails on Cygwin on Win XP with the following

$ cucumber --backtrace No such file or directory - features (Errno::ENOENT)

    Apologies - not paying attention - above is incorrect and the correct backtrace is below:

    $ cucumber --backtrace undefined local variable or method capture_model' for main:Object (NameError)<br/> ./features/step_definitions/pickle_steps.rb:4 /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:ingem_original_require' /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in polyglot_original_require' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/polyglot-0.2.9/lib/polyglot.rb:70:inrequire' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.4/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:158:in require' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.4.4/bin/../lib/cucumber/rb_support/rb_language.rb:124:inload_code_file' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.4.4/bin/../lib/cucumber/step_mother.rb:84:in load_code_file' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.4.4/bin/../lib/cucumber/step_mother.rb:76:inload_code_files' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.4.4/bin/../lib/cucumber/step_mother.rb:75:in each' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.4.4/bin/../lib/cucumber/step_mother.rb:75:inload_code_files' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.4.4/bin/../lib/cucumber/cli/main.rb:50:in execute!' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.4.4/bin/../lib/cucumber/cli/main.rb:24:inexecute' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.4.4/bin/cucumber:8 /usr/bin/cucumber:19:in load' /usr/bin/cucumber:19 ./features/support/hooks.rb:16: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!

    I haven't got cygwin running yet (have to wait till I get home to my external drive with vmware images on it)

    Looking at the error message, I can see that the code in this file:

    http://github.com/ianwhite/pickle/blob/master/lib/pickle/world.rb

    is not being loaded into the Kernel.

    Could you do a quick debug puts in that file to determine if the file is/is not being loaded.

    If it is being loaded, could you try adding the bottom three lines to your support/env.rb file, and reporting back on the results

    If it is not being loaded, I wonder if we have a load order issue. Try putting the contents of support/pickle.rb into support/env.rb and report back on the results.

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Peter sorted this out by starting over with Cygwin

    "We started from scratch with a pure Cygwin installation, using the installer for all modules. Eventually we got it working although it needed a rebaseall"
