Anyone know this error?

Answer 1

I haven’t seen that error, but most of my asset:precompile errors end up being problems within a particular asset.

When I have an unexplained error, I start trying one thing at a time. If you are using source control, can you roll back to a previous change that works? If it’s not checked in yet, use Git stash, Perforce shelf, or similar.

Here’s someone that had a similar compilation error from a CoffeeScript file: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/RUBY-12178

Hope that helps.
