What could possibly explain this? Rspec test fails when I run from TextMate but passes when I run from the console.

I made sure the TM commands are using the same Ruby as the console. The path is the same too.

what am I missing?

any insight gratefully received

Sorry to jump in so late. Try running rake db:test:prepare and then run your spec from TM. It's often an artifact of the prepare step not being part of the TM spec task.

Hope this helps.
