Error when exiting rails console

[danjohnson3141]

This is only a small annoyance but after installing the simplecov gem everyone one our team now gets an error when exiting rails console.

Here's the errors:
/Users/danieljohnson/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/2.1.0/irb.rb:412:in throw': uncaught throw :IRB_EXIT (ArgumentError) from /Users/danieljohnson/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/2.1.0/irb.rb:412:inirb_exit'

@danjohnson3141 Did you guys investigate why this is happening by any chance?

I am getting a similar error and have simplecov installed:

/home/saasbook/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p448/lib/ruby/1.9.1/irb.rb:83:in `throw': uncaught throw :IRB_EXIT (ArgumentError)

I was getting this error but it turns out I was using simplecov in both the development and test environments. When I removed simplecov from the development environment, the error went away yet simplecov still appears functional.

Could that be the solution?

@garbo999 Nice! That definitely fixes the issue in my case as well, thank you :)
