It seems that version 2.0.0.beta.11 of sprockets broke the assets pipeline. Putting

gem 'sprockets', '= 2.0.0.beta.10'

into your Gemfile seems to fix the problem (it worked for me). Rails seems to automatically use the most recent version of the beta for whatever reason so if you just started your project recently or updated all your gems it probably broke it.

Note that this info isn't mine originally, I got the fix from http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-core/browse_thread/thread/59d8c7813b4d1bbe?pli=1

He explains the problem for ver. 2.0.0.beta.11 but I was using ver. 2.0.0.beta.12 with the same results so it seems that they haven't fixed it yet.

EDIT: It seems that upgrading your rails to 3.1.rc5 also fixes the problem
