Syntax error: Undefined mixin 'adjust-font-size-to' #605

Closed brandon-rhodes closed 12 years ago

brandon-rhodes commented 12 years ago

I just pulled a project off the shelf, ran its install script which in turn ran "gem install -i Gem compass" and "gem install -i Gem compass-susy-plugin", and then tried recompiling my project's CSS. I got the error:

Syntax error: Undefined mixin 'adjust-font-size-to'

But the source file compass-0.11.5/frameworks/compass/stylesheets/compass/typography/_vertical_rhythm.scss in my Gem directory still seems to define this mixin. An aside: when I tried to fix the situation by explicitly including the file, I not only found no @import line that would make the mixin start working:

/* none of these help*/
@import "compass/typography/vertical_rhythm";
@import "compass/typography/_vertical_rhythm";
@import "vertical_rhythm";

But I also found that none of the above @import statements give error messages! This is a bit troubling — I can have a bad filename in an @import statement, and Sass will not complain to let me know? That could make it hard to diagnose misspellings that result in missing mixins etcetera.

And I keep seeing mailing list messages trumpeting syntax like:

@import susy

but I always have to put double quotes around it or I get:

error src/screen.scss (Line 4: Invalid CSS after "@import ": expected uri, was "susy")

Am I running into a difference between Sass and Scss, or something else?

barraponto — ah, so the mailing list messages were for people writing Sass rather than Scss? Fair enough. Now I am just confused about my initial two issues: (a) why imports of non-existent files result in no error messages, and (b) why a crucial directive that I need to compile my web site's Scss seems to be missing or deactivated in the most recent Compass version.

gem install -i Gem compass is wrong i think you just need to run gem install compass makesure after running this you can run compass version im thinking compass isn't actually installed. what command are you using to compile the stylesheets?

scottdavis commented 12 years ago

closing this for now unless this is still an issue repoen it

The problem seems to have been that I was installing Compass then installing Susy, which did not give Susy the chance to demand exactly the version of Compass that it is compatible with. So now I just install Susy and, it turns out, it brings along the correct Compass version as a dependency as part of its install. So everything seems to be working for me — thanks!
