Hi, I'm getting an issue running a project that was created on OSX under windows. I get the following error when I run 'brunch build' or 'brunch watch':

error: SassCompiler failed in 'app\test.scss' -- Compile error: CreateProcessW: The system cannot find the file specified.

This is a test scss file that doesn't have any imports, only sets a background colour on the body so there's nothing complicated going on in there.

It works lovely on OSX :)

If you remove node_modules dir and run npm install, everything stays same?

Just deleted node_modules, ran 'npm install' then 'brunch watch' and I get the same. Just noticed if I do 'brunch build' then I don't get any errors but I also get an empty css file in public.

i'll update brunch to 1.3 about today — could you test it with it then and tell if problem is fixed?

I'm getting the same problem, even after I installed sass via "gem install sass", ensured it's available from the PATH, and rebooted. Using Windows 7 with Brunch 1.3.1.

Hi,

I've got your update but I'm still having a similar error on windows 7 when using the eggs and bacon skeleton.

Maybe I am doing something wrong? I've got your index.coffee file so I'm at a loss :(

@crungmungus you'll need to compile this file to <plugin>/lib/index.js. This is usually done automatically if you install via npm. I hadn't released new ver to npm yet.
