Compile LESS with Web Essentials in Visual Studio Error - Cannot call method 'toJSON' of undefined

Question

I just installed Web Essentials in Visual Studio Premium 2013 in order to use LESS css. I renamed my Site.css into Site.less, save and I get Compilation Error occurred (see error list to navigate to the error location):

On the error list: Error 1 RTLCSS: Exception occured: Cannot call method 'toJSON' of undefined Site.less

I am totally new to less and have no idea what the error could be referring to. I have followed some getting started with less in visual studio tutorials and I believe I am not missing any step.

Thanks for your help!

The method that worked for me is to close the file and reopen it from the solution explorer. Just by renaming the file and trying for it to compile does not work for some reason.
