undefined method `environment' for nil:NilClass when importing Bootstrap into rails

Question

Getting error:

undefined method `environment' for nil:NilClass
Extracted source (around line #5):

<head>
  <title>Dossiyadata</title>
  <%= stylesheet_link_tag    "application", media: "all", "data-turbolinks-track" => true %>
  <%= javascript_include_tag "application", "data-turbolinks-track" => true %>
  <%= csrf_meta_tags %>
</head>

when importing bootstrap. Not sure why? Using ruby 2.1.1

Gem file:

source 'https://rubygems.org'

# Bundle edge Rails instead: gem 'rails', github: 'rails/rails'
gem 'rails', '4.0.4'


# Use SCSS for stylesheets
gem 'sass-rails'
gem 'bootstrap-sass'

My style.scss.css file:

@import 'bootstrap';

I have inlcued the javascript files, but nothing changes. Not sure why this is happening, any ideas?

Update Found a temporary solution: https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap-sass/issues/560 Just need to force sprockets version by adding this to gem file: gem 'sprockets', '=2.11.0' #force for now That will fix it for now

I also met that exact same error after I upgraded rails from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4.

To solve solve this problem, only add

gem "sass-rails", "~> 4.0.2"

to your Gemfile and then

bundle install

Finally restart rails server

Then enjoy your programming in rails 4.0.4

kmcphillips · Answer

When upgrading to Rails 4.0.5 you need to temporarily lock your sprockets at 2.11.x:

gem 'sprockets', '<= 2.11.0'

Then

bundle install

The exact error I was getting was:

ActionView::Template::Error: undefined method `environment' for nil:NilClass
