1,939 PointsTroubles with freshly installed bourbon
I've just installed bourbon on a simple static page website. This is the original Bourbon and it's immediately having issues that I'm not sure how to resolve. Any guidance is appreciated.
Bourbon v4.2.5 Sass v3.4.18

1,939 PointsMy issue ended up being that I was using the Scout app to compile my scss. Scout is discontinued and uses an old version of sass. I thought it relied on my system version of sass. I've since changed to Koala and the problem is totally fixed.

@[Antonio Jaramillo](https://teamtreehouse.com/antoniojaramillo), This is lines one and two of my style sheet. This is a fresh download of bourbon. Do I need to adjust a standard version of Bourbon to get it working?
It is Bourbon 4.2.5, and I'm running Sass 3.4.18.

1,939 PointsHere is a screenshot of my files.
In my stylesheet I have a single line of code… '''@import 'bourbon/_bourbon.scss';'''
When I compile it, I get those three lines of errors.

15,604 PointsI think I spotted the problem. When you import partials it is implied that they are .scss files, so you actually don't need to add the extensions. For example, @import 'bourbon/bourbon' and @import 'reset'

1,939 PointsHi Antonio Jaramillo, I made the suggestion you mentioned but it didn't fix the issue.

I've cut out a bunch of the styles that were causing issues. I think it has do to with compiling the sass.
Here is the issue within '_assign-inputs.scss'. I'm not sure how to fix this issue though.
Syntax error: Invalid null operation: ""[type=\"color\"]:" plus null".

Thanks for your efforts.

15,604 PointsInteresting. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I love Sass, but it sure can be unforgiving at times.

15,604 PointsCould you post your scss code as well? These errors are usually triggered by a simple typing error, a missing colon, a missing semicolon, or the like.
