Sass or Foundation Error after updating Rails and other gems

I have recently updated rails and some other gems. However now I get the following error:

Sass::SyntaxError at / Mixin "exports" does not accept a content block. (in /Users/mikhailja/Sites/marketing/app/assets/stylesheets/application.css.scss:341)

I'm using:

The problem went away for a while after trying numerous gem versions but now all of a sudden its back after getting a stack level too deep error.

I've tried the same version of foundation in a new app and it works perfectly.

Any help to get to the bottom of this problem would be very much appreciated.

According to the Foundation github repo, it has to do with a Rails and Sass compatibility issue, which creates a Foundation compatibility issue because of their codebase. Apparently sass-rails has been recently updated to deal with this, and should solve the issue, but I'm not seeing any updates when I update my gems, so best way to deal with it now is probably to downgrade.

Edit: figured it out. In your Gemfile delete the specified version of sass-rails that's autogenerated then run update and you'll get the newest version which will work with the newest version of foundation.

I found a solution. Here is what I did for anyone else experiencing this problem:

  1. Downgraded foundation-rails gem to version 5.1.1.0 (this was my original version) at this point my rails server would not start properly.

  2. Then updated foundation-rails to version 5.3.0.0

I'm not sure if there was just a gem version compatibility issue or if the downgrade/upgrade made the difference.

Anyway, now everything works and my tests are passing!
