compass installation does not work anymore

Question

Using Mac Mountain Lion

My compass installation does not work any more

I used brew, rvm, gem sometimes together with sudo (yes meanwhile I know this was not a good idea) - I have to admit that I do not have a clear picture which parts of rvm could conflict with the native ruby installation or with installations from brew…

compass install compass

gives me:

$ compass install compass /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require': cannot load such file -- sass/script/node (LoadError) from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass/sass_extensions/monkey_patches/browser_support.rb:1:in <top (required)>' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass/sass_extensions/monkey_patches.rb:2:in block in ' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass/sass_extensions/monkey_patches.rb:1:in each' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass/sass_extensions/monkey_patches.rb:1:in each' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass/sass_extensions/monkey_patches.rb:1:in ' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass/sass_extensions.rb:9:in <top (required)>' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass.rb:5:in block in ' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass.rb:4:in each' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/lib/compass.rb:4:in ' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/bin/compass:20:in block in <top (required)>' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/bin/compass:8:in fallback_load_path' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/gems/compass-0.12.2/bin/compass:19:in <top (required)>' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/bin/compass:23:in load' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/bin/compass:23:in <main>' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:15:in eval' from /Users/marc/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:15:in `'

then

which -a gem 

results in:

/Users/marc/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/bin/gem
/usr/local/bin/gem
/usr/bin/gem
/usr/local/bin/gem
/usr/bin/gem

After I learned today that I should not use sudo when installing sass and compass I deinstalled sass and compass using sudo. Following that I did a gem install compass without sudo.

Unfortunately same error as above.

So this does not have an impact.

Any ideas? Thanks, Marc

Has been solved by this entry. Have gone back to an earlier Sass version and everything is fine.
