Ruby on Rails console is hanging when loading

Restarting Spring should fix the hanging commands:

$ bin/spring stop

I experienced hanging commands (rake, bin/rails, etc.) after deleting and recreating a new Ruby on Rails application. Google wasn't that helpful. I hope this is.

Spring will start automatically when you re-run your command.

When it is suspected that Spring is the cause of weirdness, try to run this command:

spring stop && spring start

It's something wrong with the Spring gem version I guess.

Go to your Gemfile and comment gem 'spring'. Then run bundle install and try again.

# gem 'spring'

And then:

bundle install

If your work depends on the gem, try update the gems by:

bundle update
