Still letter 'a' is missing. I am using cucumber-0.4.2 watir-1.6.2 Is this Solution meant for Old Version of cucumber? Hi,

The Trick mentioned above adding “chcp 1252″ to cucumber.bat file didn’t work.
Still letter ‘a’ is missing.
I am using
cucumber-0.4.2
watir-1.6.2

Is this Solution meant for Old Version of cucumber?

A minor tweak is to munge the cucumber.bat file so the first two lines are:

I was wondering if your cucumber performance is good enough... Mine (Win Vista 64bit) it's awful. Even though cucumber tells that the features took only a few hundred of 'ms' actually the whole process takes more than 20 seconds.... Have you read about this? Which version of windows you have? Btw I'm testing with rspec, rspec-rails and webrat.... Thanks in advance... Hi Alex…

Have you read about this?

Which version of windows you have?

Btw I’m testing with rspec, rspec-rails and webrat….

Thanks in advance…

I ran into this many months ago, and forgot how I resolved it. Now on a new machine, and I was seeing the same thing. Didn't look forward to spending an hour hunting down a fix, and now I don't have to - this is just what I needed. Worked perfectly - thanks!

I tried to think of words which didn't have 'a'. lol. Thanks! I was getting aggravated when I tried to copy and paste the undefined steps. I tried to think of words which didn’t have ‘a’. lol.
