If I install the latest gem of cucumber that works:
$sudo gem install cucumber

This is a fresh system & I want to make sure I have a good cucumber

.... any ideas on how to clean the slate? I must be missing something
here....

Can you try 'cucumber --version' here instead?
Also can you try:
$irb
>> require 'rubygems'
>> require 'cucumber'
>> Cucumber::VERSION
and see what that outputs.

$ cucumber --version
0.5.1
Odd, right? I want to clear my cucumber slate on this system but can't
seem to get this 0.4.4 off.... Searching my app for reference to
0.4.4, I only see mentions of webrat >= 0.4.4

So it looks like something in is trying to require the older version
of cucumber - that's what the "can't activate cucumber (= 0.4.4,
runtime) already activated cucumber-0.5.1 (Gem::Exception)" means.
That seems odd to me, even given that your rubygems has obviously gone
a little haywire.
Two things:
(1) What is at line 5 in features/support/env.rb ?
(2) Can you try creating a fresh rails app (now that you have 0.5.1
installed), running script/generate cucumber, and see what happens then?
Oh a third thing too:
(3) What does gem --version say? If it's less than 1.3.5, please run
'sudo gem update --system'. That *might* help clear up the problem
with the older version that won't un-install.

Thanks for the help so far. So glad you are helping me on this :)
Lines 5 and 6 of my env.rb are:
require 'cucumber/rails/world'
require 'cucumber/formatter/unicode'
If I create a new app then run script/generate cucumber I get:
rails test-new-app cucumber
...
cd test-new-app
script/generate cucumber
Couldn't find 'cucumber' generator

Right.
sudo gem install cucumber-rails

Quick tip - try to post inline (as I'm doing) so that when other
people see these emails they can make sense of the history of the
conversation.
Did you read http://wiki.github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/upgrading
(as prompted by the message that's displayed when the 0.5.1 gem is
installed)? It says:
> As of Cucumber 0.5.0 you should also install/upgrade the cucumber-
> rails gem. After doing that you must also run ruby script/generate
> cucumber. See cucumber-rails’ History.txt for details, especially
> the upgrading instructions that are described for the 0.2.0 release
> of cucumber-rails.
We've done the first step, so I think your problem is now that you
need to re-generate your features/support/env.rb
Before you do that, now you've got cucumber-rails installed, try
'script/generate cucumber' in a virgin rails app again, and compare
the env.rb file that generates with the one you have in your app - I
think your app is requiring some stuff it shouldn't be.
This would all be less confusing for you if the 0.4.4 gem had
uninstalled cleanly, but I think that's a rubygems issue. Did you try
my step (3) below?

I ran into this exact error message last week. And it took me forever
to figure out what was wrong.
> "can't activate cucumber (= 0.4.4, runtime)
> already activated cucumber-0.5.1 (Gem::Exception)"
For my code, it turned out that the file /support/version_check.rb was
the one causing me the problem.
Do you have that file? What happens when you delete it?
I see you already moved all custom logic out of /support/env.rb and
upgraded the support scripts: ./script/generate cucumber
If it can help you further, there are the files that I had to modify
in the commit where I upgraded Cucumber.
I hope this will help you.

commit 194976a3fd55cc62efa9d302b4ed093f347ad9f1
Author: Jesper Rønn-Jensen
upgraded cucumber to version 0.5.1.
Had to delete /features/support/version_check.rb which stopped
cucumber during startup
But I found out after I deleted and reinstalled all gems:
$ sudo gem uninstall cucumber polyglot rspec-rails cucumber-rails
rspec jeweler
$ ^uninstall^install

That was it. I upgraded my gem version to 1.3.5 and was then able to
remove my problematic install of 0.4.4. I then was able to go about my
cuke lovin' business. Thanks Matt!
