[rspec-users] at_exit in spec file?

[Student]

Well, I've got it half solved.  In the shell call, I background &
nohup the mysqld_safe call.  After the fork, I do a Process.kill(9,
pid) on each of them.  That stops the "run twice" problem.  So now I'm
back to the "undefined method `after' for main:Object (NoMethodError)"
problem.
