Abort trap: 6

While I was working on edit_spec.rb and runnig test as the instruction, I got this message form command line..

Does anyone know what this is?

I searched around and see that most people get this msg when they try to run the server, but my server runs just fine.

I don't know what the error is but it seems pretty extreme! Something has failed within the rspec environment. If it wasn't happening before and you could run your tests, then whatever changed may have caused this.

If you're editing edit_spec.rb is there anything in there that's wrong? Can you post the code so we can take a look.

It seems a very dramatic error for a code glitch, though!

Steve.

I searched around and found a page related to this and what I got from there is that this is something related to whole ruby -v and rails -v . What I had to do was reinstall ruby and rails and it works fine now. At first, I freaked out the way of the warning msg, but like always I found the solution from google :) Thanks.
