I'm having a problem during deployment using cap deploy: the command bundle exec rake assets:precompile fails (also locally)
I'm using Rails 3.2.11
bin/rake assets:precompile:all RAILS_ENV=production RAILS_GROUPS=assets --trace
** Invoke assets:precompile:all (first_time)
** Execute assets:precompile:all
** Invoke assets:precompile:primary (first_time)
** Invoke assets:environment (first_time)
** Execute assets:environment
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
** Invoke tmp:cache:clear (first_time)
** Execute tmp:cache:clear
** Execute assets:precompile:primary
rake aborted!

When I change to: config.assets.compress = false I can deploy it but my Javascript doesn't work anymore. I searched everything but I don't have a glue where to search for: Unexpected token: operator (<) (line:39879 ...
I also had a look a this answer:
bundle exec rake assets:precompile fails with `unexpected token`
but I didin't help...
Here's my assets pipeline:
//= require jquery
//= require jquery.ui.all
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require bootstrap
//= require dataTables/jquery.dataTables
//= require_tree .
and for th css files:
*= require_self
*= require jquery.ui.all
*= require dataTables/src/demo_table_jui
*= require_tree .
Any help would be appreciated.
Update:
After a lot of try and error I removed jquery.cookie.js and the error disappears. Now whats left is an css error:
Invalid CSS after "...dding-left:8px}": expected selector or at-rule, was "<!DOCTYPE html>"
I'll further investigate...
