Firefox version supported by selenium webdriver 2.25.0

I restarted working on an older rails project today. One problem driving me crazy is that I can't get my javascript test cases to run, although I remember them all passing when I left the project. I am using

selenium-webdriver 2.25.0 capybara 1.1.2 cucumber 1.2.1

but firefox doesn't start when I run the tests. All I get is

unable to start Firefox cleanly, args: ["-silent"] (Selenium::WebDriver::Error::WebDriverError)

I guess this is because of updating firefox and I tried to install several older versions but none of them works. Which version is supported by selenium-webdriver 2.25.0?

Yes, this is annoying. I just upgrade the driver and it usually does the trick:

bundle update selenium-webdriver
