Hey there,

Been using FoundationPress on a few projects with no issue, but today, tried to setup a new project and getting an error with attempting to install node-sass. Here is the error:

npm ERR! Darwin 14.1.0
npm ERR! argv "node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "install"
npm ERR! node v0.12.0
npm ERR! npm v2.5.1
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! [email protected] postinstall: 'node scripts/build.js'
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] postinstall script 'node scripts/build.js'.
npm ERR! This is most likely a problem with the node-sass package,
npm ERR! not with npm itself.

I attempted to update the package.json to use sass 2.0.1 and the install works, however, the grunt build fails with:

Running "sass:dist" (sass) task
Fatal error: undefined is not a function

Running on OSX Yosemite, incase it matters.

Thanks for sharing FoundationPress with github. Been an awesome tool to use with WordPress to harness Foundation.

UPDATE: I've read that node-sass 1.2.3 is not compatible with node 0.12.0. I tried to roll back to node 0.11.9, but seem to get the same error:

npm ERR! [email protected] postinstall: 'node scripts/build.js'

npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] postinstall script.

We all just went through this.
Try the answers here. #208

Thanks, Josh. Sorry I missed that previous ticket. Just be clear, looks like you need node 0.10.33. Installing 0.10.33 fixed the issue for me.

[joshsmith01]

Hmm, not sure. I just folowed Ole's directions in the post and everything works now.

Hi guys. It's not ideal that grunt-sass is incompatible with the latest stable version of the node. But currently we have a choice to roll back node to v. 0.10.33 (as described in #208) or ditch libsass and use the much slower ruby/compass alternative. I'll stick with grunt-sass/libsass and keep an extra eye on future updates. Glad you got it working :)

Hi,

I have problems too. I tried the following versions :

• nodejs : 0.12.2
• node-sass : 2.1.1
• grunt-sass : 0.18.0

This config works on my host machine (windows 8.1) but I get the following error on my ubuntu 14.04 VM :
"Error: libsass bindings not found. Try reinstalling node-sass?"

I manage to make this works on the ubuntu VM with the following versions :

• nodejs : 0.10.35
• node-sass : 2.0.0-beta
• grunt-sass : 0.17.0

Hope this helps!

It's not node or grunt, it's the scss code. Double check you haven't got an error there, drove me crazy but that's all it was, a syntax error.

[phillbooth]

you may have the wrong type of scss install try removing all gems installed and then re-installing node-sass as per http://foundation.zurb.com/docs/sass.html

sudo npm install -g bower grunt-cli

sudo gem install foundation

bundle;

npm i;

bower install;

then...

grunt build --force && grunt watch --force;
