Rails 4 - Heroku, precompile assets failed

Question

I'm having a problem with assets loading in Heroku and haven't been able to resolve this issue on my own. Right now, I am unable to get assets to load on my app in Heroku.

I was told that I needed to precompile my assets locally. The only way I could get this to work was by changing = require_self and = require_tree . in application.css manifest to @import. From there I was able to run rake assets:precompile, but no styles loaded on Heroku or locally. I switched things back and now styles show up locally, but I can no longer push to heroku. I get this error:

rake aborted!
Sass::SyntaxError: Invalid CSS after "...AwesomeEotPath:": expected pseudoclass or pseudoelement, was " 'fontawesome-..."
(in /tmp/build/app/assets/stylesheets/application.css)
(sass):7153

Answer 1

Based on the error message you posted there is a syntax error in your sass file. Is there a comma after that line around 7152 or 7153? Or maybe " ; " instead of " : " ?
