Menu
I'm at 5.1.2 of the railstutorial, I have just installed Bootstrap-sass (I've double checked, the gem is there). http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/filling-in-the-layout#top
I added this file: app/assets/stylesheets/custom.css.scss
And when I give it this content:
@import "bootstrap";
My http://localhost:3000/static_pages/home does not work anymore. It gives the following error:
ArgumentError in Static_pages#home
Showing c:/Sites/rails_projects/sample_app/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb where line #5 raised:
different prefix: "e:/" and "c:/Sites/rails_projects/sample_app/app/assets/stylesheets"
(in c:/Sites/rails_projects/sample_app/app/assets/stylesheets/custom.css.scss)
Extracted source (around line #5):

5: <%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", :media => "all" %>
6: <%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
7: <%= csrf_meta_tags %>

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

Your gems is in E: while your app is in C:\
When trying to @import, Assets module will search several places including gem path. But it can't recognize the disk within the path. That's why your @import fails.
Suggestion: Put your app and gems in same disk.
Side note: Don't use Windows for Rails development at all.
