I'm precompiling assets locally and pushing them to S3. In production I get this error:

heroku[router]: at=info method=GET path=/ host=www.someapp.org fwd="76.87.106.226" dyno=web.1 connect=2ms service=614ms status=500 bytes=0
app[web.1]: ActionView::Template::Error (couldn't find file 'bootstrap'

app[web.1]:   (in /app/app/assets/stylesheets/application.css:11)):
app[web.1]:     1: <%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", media: "all" %>

When I run in production mode locally I do not get that error.

Here is my application.rb:

require File.expand_path("../boot", __FILE__)

# Pick the frameworks you want:
require "active_record/railtie"
require "action_controller/railtie"
require "action_mailer/railtie"

if defined?(Bundler)
  # If you precompile assets before deploying to production, use this line
  Bundler.require(*Rails.groups(:assets => %w(development test)))
  # If you want your assets lazily compiled in production, use this line
  # Bundler.require(:default, :assets, Rails.env)
end

    config.active_record.whitelist_attributes = true

    # Enable the asset pipeline
    config.assets.enabled = true

    # Version of your assets, change this if you want to expire all your assets
    config.assets.version = "1.0"

    config.generators do |generator|
      generator.test_framework :rspec, view_specs: false
    end

    config.assets.prefix = "/assets/#{Rails.env}"

    config.filepicker_rails.api_key = ENV["FILEPICKER_API_KEY"]

    # Allow for CORS requests
    config.middleware.use Rack::Cors do
      allow do
        origins "*"

      end
    end
  end
end

Here is my production.rb:

  # config.active_record.auto_explain_threshold_in_seconds = 0.5
end

Here is my asset_sync.rb:

if defined?(AssetSync) && !(ENV["HOME"] == "/app")
  AssetSync.configure do |config|
    config.fog_provider = "AWS"
    config.fog_directory = ENV["AMAZON_BUCKET"]
    config.aws_access_key_id = ENV["AMAZON_S3_KEY"]
    config.aws_secret_access_key = ENV["AMAZON_S3_SECRET"]

    # Increase upload performance by configuring your region
    config.fog_region = "us-west-2"
    #
    # Don't delete files from the store
    config.existing_remote_files = ENV["ASSET_SYNC_EXISTING_REMOTE_FILES"]
    #
    # Automatically replace files with their equivalent gzip compressed version
    config.gzip_compression = ENV["ASSET_SYNC_GZIP_COMPRESSION"]
    #
    # Use the Rails generated 'manifest.yml' file to produce the list of files to
    # upload instead of searching the assets directory.
    config.manifest = ENV["ASSET_SYNC_MANIFEST"]
    #
    # Fail silently.  Useful for environments such as Heroku
    # config.fail_silently = true
  end
end

Here is my application.css:

 /*
 *= require bootstrap
 *= require bootstrap-responsive
 *= require font-awesome
 *= require chosen
 *= require bootstrap/tour
 *= require bootstrap/lightbox
 *= require_self
 */

In production mode locally the method gives me the correct cloudfront URL.

What's going wrong here?

  • It happened this to me and I solved moving the `bootstrap` gem out of the `assets` group. It is not a new problem you can take a look here: http://stackoverflow.com/q/9213599/1004046 or here: http://stackoverflow.com/q/13377374/1004046 – Pigueiras May 06 '13 at 21:26
  • Shouldn't I not have to do this since I'm precompiling? – krainboltgreene May 06 '13 at 23:19

Turns out despite precompiling locally, Heroku was still trying to precompile on Heroku.

It would fail, and then try to compile the assets live. This would then fail in the way described.

I solved this by creating an empty file /public/assets/manifest.yml, even though my config says assets are in /public/assets/production/
