I am not even sure where to start debugging this. Months ago, I could happily compile my CSS from my LESS files. Today, I run either recess --compile test.less
or lessc test.less
and I just get a blank output. No errors. lessc test.less > test.css
just creates a blank file. The twitter-bootstrap Makefile for LESS errors, all be it not helpfully.
I'm using the following simple test.less
to debug:
@color: #4D926F;
#header {
color: @color;
}
h2 {
color: @color;
}
I'm on ubuntu 12.10, I used sudo apt-get install node-less
to provide lessc
, and installed recess from the directions on github (npm). Both just give me empty output.
Even lessc --version
returns nothing.
which lessc
shows
/usr/local/bin/lessc
and the file isn't empty.
Something must have happened to my node
installation perhaps, but no idea how to debug this. apt-get remove --purge node-less
and reinstalling didn't help.
Many thanks for the help or any tips on debugging!
