FYI - ran into this issue after deleting and recreating a new rails project.

Ran: ps aux | grep -i spring

Noticed there was still a spring process running for the project.

bin/spring stop helped kill the process.

This stack overflow article helped me: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25027284/ruby-on-rails-console-is-hanging-when-loading

Hoping this helps anyone else in the future that comes across the issue.

We have tests that run to ensure this command works so this likely an issue in your setup, have you tried running with DISABLE_SPRING=true and/or checked for debugging steps? Without some form of isolated reproduction we won't be able to help much.

In the same project, it's working now. I can generate it without DISABLE_SPRING=true. Not sure what went wrong. https://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails/issues/1885 issue looks similar to mine. I feel something is wrong but not sure how to replicate it. Will open the issue if I can re-replicate the issue. Thanks @JonRowe for your response. Cheers !
