rspec loaderrror issue during Chapter 3 of Rails Tutorial

Question

I'm working through Michael Hartl's Rails Tutorial book and I'm on Chapter 3, trying to get the rspec test to fail as it says in the book. The only issue is I keep getting a load error every time I run: $ bundle exec rspec spec/requests/static_pages_spec.rb

It returns this:

atlas:sample_app Leopard$ bundle exec rspec spec/requests/static_pages_spec.rb

I've also already scoured all of the questions with this issue but none of the given answers in those seem to work for me. I've been stuck for about 4 hours on this.

I've also reinstalled rspec, made sure my Gemfile was saved and properly updated and installed and still seem to get nowhere.

Here is my current Gemfile:

source 'https://rubygems.org'
ruby '2.0.0'
#ruby-gemset=railstutorial_rails_4_0

gem 'rails', '4.0.0'
gem 'bootstrap-sass', '2.3.2.0'
gem 'bcrypt-ruby', '3.0.1'
gem 'faker', '1.1.2'
gem 'will_paginate', '3.0.4'
gem 'bootstrap-will_paginate', '0.0.9'

group :development, :test do
  gem 'sqlite3', '1.3.7'
  gem 'rspec', '2.13.0'
  gem 'rspec-rails', '2.13.1'
  # The following optional lines are part of the advanced setup.
  # gem 'guard-rspec', '2.5.0'
  # gem 'spork-rails', github: 'sporkrb/spork-rails'
  # gem 'guard-spork', '1.5.0'
  # gem 'childprocess', '0.3.6'
end

 group :test do
   gem 'selenium-webdriver', '2.0.0'
   gem 'rspec-rails', '2.13.1'
   gem 'capybara', '2.1.0'
   gem 'factory_girl_rails', '4.2.0'
   gem 'cucumber-rails', '1.4.0', :require => false
   gem 'database_cleaner', github: 'bmabey/database_cleaner'

  # Uncomment this line on OS X.
  # gem 'growl', '1.0.3'

  # Uncomment these lines on Linux.
  # gem 'libnotify', '0.8.0'

  # Uncomment these lines on Windows.
  # gem 'rb-notifu', '0.0.4'
  # gem 'win32console', '1.3.2'
end

  gem 'sass-rails', '4.0.0'
  gem 'uglifier', '2.1.1'
  gem 'coffee-rails', '4.0.0'
  gem 'jquery-rails', '2.2.1'
  gem 'turbolinks', '1.1.1'
  gem 'jbuilder', '1.0.2'

group :doc do
  gem 'sdoc', '0.3.20', require: false
end

group :production do
  gem 'pg', '0.15.1'
  gem 'rails_12factor', '0.0.2'
end

Thanks in advance for your help!

You need to update your gemfile.

gem 'selenium-webdriver', '2.0.0'

to

gem 'selenium-webdriver', '~> 2.35.1'

The the root of your problem.
