Error: Maximum call stack size exceeded

[jtangelder]

I just upgraded to the latest version, and now sometimes get this error in my console.

/node_modules/grunt-contrib-compass/node_modules/tmp/lib/tmp.js:260
  throw err;
        ^
RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

This are the options i use in my Gruntfile,

sassDir: 'src/scss'
cssDir: 'dist/assets/css'
relativeAssets: false
noLineComments: true
force: true
outputStyle: 'compressed'
banner: '/*! <%= banner %> */'
specify: ['src/scss/main.scss','src/scss/main-nomq.scss','src/scss/main-oldie.scss']

[sindresorhus]

What Node version and OS? Does it still happen if you disable the banner option?

[sindresorhus]

@passy thoughts? only new thing since last version is the banner thing.

[jtangelder]

Node version 0.10.9, osx 10.8.3

[jtangelder]

It also occurs when i disable the banner and specify options. I did some testing, and it looks like it has to do with the interrupt option from grunt watch... When it is cancelled, and then restarted, the error pops up.

After some more debugging, i noticed grunt watch has been updated to 0.5. Switching back to 0.4 solves the issue for me.

@jtangelder Could you post your full gruntfile?

Same here, grunt-contrib-watch 0.5.1 + grub-contrib-compass 0.4.1 results in "Error: Maximum call stack size exceeded" if I enable "interrupt" in watch and trigger a new compass task before the end of the running one.

When downgrading to grub-contrib-watch 0.4.4 everything works fine.

[paulkoegel]

I have the same problem, Node v0.10.15, "grunt-contrib-watch": "~0.5.1", "grunt-contrib-compass": "~0.4.1",

watch:
  options:
    livereload: true
    interrupt: true
    debounceDelay: 250

[eddiemonge]

+1 for me. grunt-contrib-watch: 0.5.1 grunt-contrib-compass: 0.5.0 node 0.10.15

[shama]

We have an open issue here for this: gruntjs/grunt-contrib-watch#185. I'll look into a fix as soon as I can. Thanks!
