no implicit conversion of Array into String - error using sprite-map with Ruby 2.2.0

[paultibbetts]

Hi, I'm getting the following error when trying to run compass watch on a project I've inherited:

>>> Compass is watching for changes. Press Ctrl-C to Stop.
    error /Users/paul/Sites/xxxxxx/assets/sass/styles.scss (/Users/paul/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.0/gems/compass-1.0.3/lib/compass/sass_extensions/sprites/image.rb:24:in `basename': no implicit conversion of Array into String)

however unlike this issue I do have a relative path set.

The line that seems to be causing the error is:

$sprites: sprite-map("sprites/*.png", $spacing: 10px, $layout: horizontal); // import 1x sprites

The image path has been set in config.rb as images_dir = "img" and the sprites folder is found in assets/img/sprites

I'm using Ruby 2.2.0, Compass 1.0.3 and Sass 3.4.11.

Any ideas what the problem is?

Thanks, Paul

Update I've rolled back to Ruby 2.1.0 and I'm no longer getting the error.

I had the same issue while trying to run a compass compile from Gulp. (This was after converting it from native Compass compile) Adding the "relative_assets: true" option to the compass gulp command fixed my issue.

.pipe(compass({
                    //style:'compact',
                    comments: false,
                    css: taskName.cssTo,
                    sass: taskName.cssFrom,
                    image: taskName.img,
                    font: taskName.fonts,
                    debug: false,
                    logging: false, 
                    showStack: false, 
                    relative_assets: true, 
                    line_comments: false
                }))

I get this error when I try to do a grunt build in git bash. It works fine when I do it in command prompt. Sass 3.4.22 Compass 1.0.3 Ruby 2.3.0p0 (2015-12-25 revision 53290) [x64-mingw32]

I had a similar issue with Windows PowerShell. As mentioned by @evonsdesigns it works fine with the command prompt.
