Codekit file permission issues (Read-only file system @ dir_s_mkdir - /.sass-cache)

Question

Getting the following error:

Compiling failed with this error: Errno::EROFS on line ["239"] of /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.6/usr/lib/ruby/2.6.0/fileutils.rb: Read-only file system @ dir_s_mkdir - /.sass-cache
Run with --trace to see the full backtrace

Really painful, any help would be appreciated.

Happened after my update to Mac OS Catalina. Currently on 10.15.1 (19B88).

Answer 1

Ruby Sass is deprecated. In Codekit 3 you should use libsass compiler instead. Libsass is not available if you use Compass. If so, you can set the cache location path in the config.rb:

sass_options = { :cache_location => '/tmp/sass_cache' }

Answer 2

/.sass-cache would be a Sass cache directory at the root of your file system. It should not be trying to create that directory there.

However this Ruby is getting run, it's not running with the right working directory, or needs to be passed a base path to run in.
