Error when running under cucumber with spork

[papersmith]

When I run my cucumber features with spork, it throws an error:

undefined method `flush' for class `DRb::DRbObject' (NameError)

full backtrace

It runs fine standalone without spork. It also runs fine with selenium and rack_test.

Huh. I know nothing about spork and very little about Drb. Not sure what could be the issue here ...

Do you have an example that you can post somewhere?

[papersmith]

Basically it happens when I call click_button, perhaps other actions as well.

To be honest I have no idea what's going on either, but my ugly hack seems to at least make everything pass:

class DRb::DRbObject
  def flush
  end
end

I am on 0.4 and experienced this. The hack works for me

I missed the backtrace at first.

I think I'm just calling flush on stdout/stderr for debugging.

Seems to me like if spork is going to muck with stdout/stderr, it should make the sufficiently stream-like.
