assets:precompile fails with unknown variable

I'm trying to deploy my working dev system to another machine using capistrano, so I don't know where the problem lies - with dev, production or me ;)

I am trying to precompile the assets, but get this error :

bundle exec rake assets:precompile RAILS_ENV=production

rake aborted! Undefined variable: "$grayLight". (in /opt/data/rails/project/releases/20121002101450/app/assets/stylesheets/application.css)

I am using twitter-bootstrap

I honestly have been reading up on anything that I can find, but cannot get this thing to work. Would appreciate any help.

Thanks

where do you have this error? on your dev machine? what's the gem you're using for bootstrap? – Máté

an easy fix is put a static color value in your file, such as "#778899"

Here are some css color value translations from their variables: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colorsfull.asp
