compass not working on Ubuntu 12.04

This problem is similar to the following issues:

but compass doesn't work. It's not a PATH issue reported by some others.

The canonical package gave errors.

Canonical package: sudo apt-get install ruby-compass

Used the gem instead:

Gem install: sudo gem install compass

Console output:

compass --version:

Errno::ENOENT on line 25 of /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/sass/../compass/version.rb: No such file or directory - /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/sass/../compass/../../VERSION.yml

compass watch:

LoadError on line 122 of /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/sass/../compass/configuration/data.rb: no such file to load -- compass/import-once/activate

I am not able to get compass working properly.

Solution

  • I found something that worked.

    sudo apt-get install rubygems1.8 sudo gem install rubygems-update sudo update_rubygems sudo gem install compass
