I am trying to run a simple bundle exec rake db:seed for my database in Rails 4. However, when running it, I get the following output:
********-C02MGBVJFD57:myapp ***********$ bundle exec rake db:seed
Your Gemfile lists the gem factory_girl_rails (>= 0) more than once.
You should probably keep only one of them.
While it's not a problem now, it could cause errors if you change the version of just one of them later.
rake aborted!

Here is my seeds.rb file:
User.create!(
name: "Example User",
email: "[email protected]",
password: "foobar",
password_confirmation: "foobar",
admin: true
)
99.times do |n|
name = Faker::Name.name
email = "example-#{n+1}@railstutorial.org"
password = "password"
User.create!(
name: name,
email: email,
password: password,
password_confirmation: password
)
end
Line 16 is:
name = Faker::Name.name
Any ideas why I am getting this error? Thank you.
Just faced similar issue - I was running
rails g model model_name
and getting the error:
uninitialized constant Faker (NameError)
Problem was due to fact, that I had gem added to test
group.
Placing it into development
and test
group solved the problem:
group :development, :test do
# ...
gem 'faker'
# ...
end
