Windows Compass errors. Any suggestions?

[rhinowrk]

I'm going to list two issues, only because i think they are related. If this assumption is in error I will repost as separate issues.

Issue #1:
C:\xampp\htdocs\project>compass watch

Compass is watching for changes. Press Ctrl-C to Stop.
ArgumentError on line ["500"] of C: different prefix: "/" and "C:\xampp/htdocs/project/css/sass"
Run with --trace to see the full backtrace

• Note: config.rb seems to be set up properly. Any change to config.rb will allow Compass to proceed normally again, including adding a simple space anywhere in the file and saving it.

issue #2:
C:\xampp\htdocs\project>compass watch
modified config.rb
clean css
delete css/style.css
delete css/under-ie9.css

Compass is watching for changes. Press Ctrl-C to Stop.
write css/style.css
write css/under-ie9.css
modified css/sass/partials/_project.scss

• Note: Compass just hangs here indefinitely. Upon ctrl+c the following is outputted:

Any info greatly appreciated. Thanks!

is the wdm gem installed?

[rhinowrk]

sorry for the response delay. yes sir it is.

[chriseppstein]

If you pass the --poll option does it work for you?

[rhinowrk]

I'm sorry, Chris, unfamiliar with the --poll option.

[chriseppstein]

Ugh. windows makes me 😢

[Shupal]

have you install ruby and compass via rubyinstaller?

[LennyBalston]

I had exactly the same error as mikapa.

I resolved this issue by changing the gemfile gem 'sass-globbing', '1.1.0'
and running bundle install again.
