Installing bootstrap with Rails

Question

I've added the following to Gemfile:

gem 'bootstrap-sass'

I added this to assets/stylesheets/application.css.scss (renamed to .scss):

 @import "bootstrap-sprockets";
 @import "bootstrap";

I then ran bundle install.

I've added this controller: rails g controller firstpage index. When I visit localhost:3000/firstpage/index, I get this error:

Showing /Users/myuser/Projects/test5/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb where line #5 raised:

File to import not found or unreadable: bootstrap-sprockets.

@import "bootstrap-sprockets";
@import "bootstrap";

Anyone know what I did wrong?

Answer 1

Make sure you restart your server when you bundle install. Also, remove *= require_self and *= require_tree . when using imports.

Answer 2

Have you restarted the server? CTRL + C and then rails s again.
