Rails and Foundation file not found or unreadable

So I'm trying to get zurb foundation 5 to work with my Ruby on Rails app. There are many similar questions out there, but I've tried everything and nothing seems to work. Also most deal with foundation 4 so I feel that the other answers are outdated.

I'm getting a syntax error with the error message saying "File to import not found or unreadable: foundation/functions."

Here's my Gemfile:



    source 'https://rubygems.org'


    # Bundle edge Rails instead: gem 'rails', github: 'rails/rails'
    gem 'rails', '4.2.0'

    group :development, :test do
        # Use sqlite3 as the database for Active Record
        gem 'sqlite3'
    end

    group :production do
        gem 'pg'
    end

    group :assets do
        # Use SCSS for stylesheets
        gem 'sass-rails'
        # Use Uglifier as compressor for JavaScript assets
        gem 'uglifier', '>= 1.3.0'
        # Use CoffeeScript for .coffee assets and views
        gem 'coffee-rails', '~> 4.1.0'
        # Foundation
        gem 'foundation-rails'
        # Compass
        gem 'compass-rails'

    end 
    # See https://github.com/sstephenson/execjs#readme for more supported runtimes
    # gem 'therubyracer', platforms: :ruby

    # Use jquery as the JavaScript library
    gem 'jquery-rails'
    # Turbolinks makes following links in your web application faster. Read more: https://github.com/rails/turbolinks
    gem 'turbolinks'
    # Build JSON APIs with ease. Read more: https://github.com/rails/jbuilder
    gem 'jbuilder', '~> 2.0'
    # bundle exec rake doc:rails generates the API under doc/api.
    gem 'sdoc', '~> 0.4.0', group: :doc

    # Use ActiveModel has_secure_password
    # gem 'bcrypt', '~> 3.1.7'

    # Use Unicorn as the app server
    # gem 'unicorn'

    # Use Capistrano for deployment
    # gem 'capistrano-rails', group: :development

    group :development, :test do
      # Call 'byebug' anywhere in the code to stop execution and get a debugger console
      gem 'byebug'

      # Access an IRB console on exception pages or by using  in views
      gem 'web-console', '~> 2.0'

      # Spring speeds up development by keeping your application running in the background. Read more: https://github.com/rails/spring
      gem 'spring'
    end

I had two versions of foundation, but I uninstalled the older one. I don't know what else the problem could be, and I appreciate any the help the community can give!

It looks like it could be a problem with the path settings, per this item on the Foundation Github repo. If you go into app/assets/stylesheets/foundation_and_overrides.scss and edit the @import line to read:

@import 'foundation';

instead of:

@import 'foundation/functions';

Does that work? (that info from this link)

On a side note: I believe the assets group was removed in Rails4 (Why did Rails4 drop support for "assets" group in the Gemfile). I'm guessing this doesn't affect the error you're getting, but might be worth cleaning up the code.
