Compass/Sass on Windows

[basakPratik]

@sahilmepani..
i followed your lead, but i am getting an error message while installing compass..it says “ERROR: While executing gem … (OpenSSl::SSL::SSlError)
SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server hello A: sslv3 alert illegal parameter”
I had the same error message while installing sass, but later it worked.

Hello everybody,

I have a simple issue with scout and my compass/sass project.

Scout is using it’s own gem directory and does not find the ruby directory.
For example, i have installed twitter-bootstrap gem and it went in my ruby->gems directory
I find it when in my console i try: gem -v bootstrap-sass

But when i launch scout application and trying to compile, it keeps telling me it can’t find the gem:

LoadError on line 1038 of org/jruby/RubyKernel.java: no such file to load — bootstrap-sass

C:\Program Files\Scout\bin\compass:12:in(root)’

As you can see scout does not target the ruby directory path for gems.
How can i change this?

Thanks.

Scout has not been maintained for some time, I believe.

I think a lot of people have moved on to other options like Prepros.

I hope someone can assist with your issue which might have been better as a new question rather than tagging on to an old one.

I was having a headache finding a solution for this in windows env and finally found Prepros.
It saved my day, i can now use my custom ruby install and gems and everything is just fine now.

I don’t even need the paid features for this software. I strongly recommend it.

After two days of installing ruby, ruby devKit, lots of gems and lots of extensions to Cygwin on Windows:

$ gem install compass
Building native extensions. This could take a while…
Successfully installed ffi-1.9.10
ERROR: Error installing compass:
rb-inotify requires ffi (>= 0.5.0)
