I have a new Rails 5 app. I installed the spring and spring-commands-rspec gems as specified in their directions. I can run rspec by itself and the tests run fine. However, if I run the Spring binstub bin/rspec I get this:
Running via Spring preloader in process 227
/usr/local/bundle/gems/activerecord-5.0.0.1/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:671:in `initialize': could not connect to server: No such file or directory (PG::ConnectionBad)
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

etc...
I have a Rails 4 app that uses the binstubs and bin/rspec works great. What gives?
Incidentally, rake spec fails the same way, with that database connection error.
Embarrassing. I had not set up my database.yml properly to inherit settings from *default, so the message above literally was telling me there was no database running. Once I got that fixed, the binstub worked again.
