3,520 PointsEntering "bin/rake spec" results in "failed"
I am stuck and cannot move past this video. Please help!
When I entered "bin/rake spec" into the command terminal, this was the result:

It might not be seeing the helper file because of the uppercase letters like it was mentioned in this link or maybe something with the directory like this link. I was having a similar problem in one of the tutorials I was working on and I followed the instructions on those stack overflow links to change the directory name.
I hope one of these two work for you and good luck!

3,520 PointsDo I need to change both the "Users" folder and the "Iverson" folder to "users" and "iverson"? Will it mess anything up with my Mac to change the user folder?

33,049 PointsI'm not sure how Mac treats uppercase and lowercase folders so I would try the suggestions on the second link to see if that works:
cd ~ mv sites tmpsites mv tmpsites sites
If that doesn't work, I would try creating a symbolic link but I'm not sure if that command works the same way on Macs.
