[Rails] Rake sporadic: worik

Hi,

I tried to invoke rake from a Command Window, with a couple of
failures and
one success. I haven't consciously done anything to my system to
impact
rake Any idea what's going on?

First try:
K:\>rake --trace
rake aborted!
No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb,
Rakefile.rb)
K:/_Utilities/ruby186-26_rc2/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/
lib/rake.rb:2377:in

K:/_Utilities/ruby186-26_rc2/ruby/bin/rake:19:in `load'
K:/_Utilities/ruby186-26_rc2/ruby/bin/rake:19

Second try:
K:\_Projects\Ruby\_Rails_Apps\_EIMS\RTS>rake --trace
rake aborted!
[snip: same trace]

Third try (success):
K:\_Projects\Ruby\_Rails_Apps\_EIMS\RTS2>rake --trace
(in K:/_Projects/Ruby/_Rails_Apps/_EIMS/RTS2)
** Invoke default (first_time)
** Invoke test (first_time)
** Execute test
** Invoke test:units (first_time)
** Invoke db:test:prepare (first_time)
** Invoke db:abort_if_pending_migrations (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
** Execute db:abort_if_pending_migrations
You have 1 pending migrations:
20100624214641 CreateExpenses
Run "rake db:migrate" to update your database then try again.

In the second attempt, there was a migration in the depths of the RTS
directory, but rake failed instead of reporting the migration's
existence.
I can't imagine how this problem occurred.

Thanks in Advance,
Richard
