finding an @import? (fancy-buttons)

[Jonathan Linowes]

Hi,
Just started using compass tonight, in a Rail app.
I tried adding the fancy-buttons plugin, following the instructions at http://github.com/imathis/fancy-buttons
as follows

$ sudo gem install compass --pre
$ sudo gem install compass-colors
$ sudo gem install fancy-buttons

edit config/compass.config, adding
require 'compass-colors'
require 'fancy-buttons'

$ compass install -r fancy-buttons fancy-buttons

Then i added to my appliction.sass file (after the @import blueprint , etc)
@import fancy_buttons.sass

When i try to refresh a page, i get
Sass::SyntaxError: File to import not found or unreadable: fancy_buttons.sass

I see the gems in my gem directory, why isnt @import finding it?

thanx

Add to your compass.rb config file where it says:

# Require any additional compass plugins here.
require 'compass-colors'
require 'fancy-buttons’

Oh, sorry. Just saw that you did that step. Then I don’t know, sorry.

Did you restart rails after installing?

i got it:

@import fancy_buttons

rather than

@import fancy_buttons.sass

(why?)

Now, I get

TypeError: can't convert nil to String

even when i remove the @import fancy_buttons

But when I uninstall compass -v 0.10.0.pre5 (thus use 0.8.17)

the error goes away, 

but fancy-buttons requires the pre version :(

Add:

cache_dir = "tmp/sass-cache"

to your config.
