How to fix "Function not implemented - Failed to initialize inotify (Errno::ENOSYS)" in ra-CodePudding

So I'm running the new Apple M1 Pro chipset, and the original M1 chip on another machine, and when I attempt to create new RSpec tests in ruby I get the following error.

Function not implemented - Failed to initialize inotify (Errno::ENOSYS)

the full stack dump looks like this

rails is running from a docker container, and I have tried following the solution that is listed below but not such luck. I'm fairly new to ruby and rails so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Update: To fix this issue I used the solution from @mahatmanich listed here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31857365/rails-generate-commands-hang-when-trying-to-create-a-model'

Essentially, we need to delete the bin directory and then re-create it using rake app:update:bin

Since rails 5 some 'rake' commands are encapsulated within the 'rails' command. However when one deletes 'bin/' directory one is also removeing the 'rails' command itself, thus one needs to go back to 'rake' for the reset since 'rails' is not available any longer but 'rake' still is.
