cucumber rails failing a case

I have the following scenario in feature:

@home
Feature: Home page

@home
Scenario: User launches home page
  Given a user visits the home page
  And user is not signed in
  Then he should see user signin information

Am seeing 2 problems: 1) When I run rake cucumber --tags @home, it throws an error: invalid option: --tags

So, I run with cucumber --tags @home 2) It is throwing the following error: 

Given a user visits the home page             # features/step_definitions/home_steps.rb:2
And user is not signed in                     # features/step_definitions/home_steps.rb:23
Then he should see user signin information    # features/step_definitions/home_steps.rb:6
  expected link "User Sign In" to return something (RSpec::Expectations::ExpectationNotMetError)
  ./features/step_definitions/home_steps.rb:8:in `/^he should see user signin information$/'
  features/home.feature:8:in `Then he should see user signin information'

However, when I launch and see in browser, I can see and click the link and I verified the step to make sure there are no spelling mistakes or extra spaces.

Can some one help me how I can debug this?

Steps:

Given /^a user visits the home page$/ do
  visit home_path
end
Given /^user is not signed in$/ do

end

Then /^he should see user signin information$/ do
  page.should have_link('User Sign In', href: user_signin_path)
end

You can try debugging your app by adding save_and_open_page right before the page.should have_link clause. That will open a browser page and you'll see what cucumber 'sees' right before it checks for your expectation.
