Rails using cached application.css despite changes

Question

I have a Rails 3.1 application that uses SASS. The application.css.scss file looks like:

@import \'reset.css\';
@import \'960.css\';
@import \'p         


        

Answer 1

Random I was having a caching issue related to using twitter bootstrap and application.css.scss. Basically I changed application.css.scss to just plain application.css and fixed my problem. Maybe this can help you? If you haven't figured it out already.

Answer 2

I had a similar issue with Rails 6.0.3.1 today. I had to re-touch application.scss so that rails didn't use the cached version.

Running rake tmp:cache:clear helped, but it's annoying because I had to run the command every time I updated any partial scss file. :(

Answer 3

I was having this problem, but I was actually putting css into application.css, rather than into files that it included. I cleared out application.css to simply include all of my css. So, my application.css now looks like this:

/*
 * This is a manifest file that'll be compiled into application.css, which will include all the files
 * listed below.
 *
 * Any CSS and SCSS file within this directory, lib/assets/stylesheets, vendor/assets/stylesheets,
 * or vendor/assets/stylesheets of plugins, if any, can be referenced here using a relative path.
 *
 * You're free to add application-wide styles to this file and they'll appear at the top of the
 * compiled file, but it's generally better to create a new file per style scope.
 *
 *= require_self
 *= require 'bootstrap.min'
 *= require 'global'
 */

My changes are reflected any time I change one of the included files (e.g. global.css)
