Bootstrap only partially functional in rails -- glyphicons not working

I can't get my glyphicons to work in my Rails asset pipeline.

In stylesheets/application.sass, I have...

@import "bootstrap-sprockets"
@import "bootstrap"
@import "glyphicons"

I am using the bootstrap-sass and sass-rails gems

In stylesheets/glyphicons.css, I have...

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
  src: url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot'));
  src: url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot?#iefix')) format('embedded-opentype'), url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff')) format('woff'), url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.ttf')) format('truetype'), url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.svg#glyphicons_halflingsregular')) format('svg');
}

It's weird, because this (below) works fine, giving me the red danger button...

<a class="detete btn btn-danger" href="#">x</a>

...while this one (below) does not work, not giving me either the grey default button or the star icon...

<a class="btn" href="#"><i class="icon-star-empty"></i></a>

That's why I say Bootstrap is only working "partially" for me. Any help on this would be much appreciated.

By default Glyphicons font directory set to fonts folder. Instead you should define it with asset_path . So try add below code in app/assets/stylesheets/application.css.scs.

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
  src: url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot'));
  src: url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot?#iefix')) format('embedded-opentype'), url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff')) format('woff'), url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.ttf')) format('truetype'), url(asset_path('glyphicons-halflings-regular.svg#glyphicons_halflingsregular')) format('svg');
}`

You might also need to make change in config/application.rb file.

config.assets.paths << "#{Rails}/vendor/assets/fonts"

Have you added the following line to your application.js. you have not mentioned anything about your application.js here. I hope this will help you 

//= require jquery
//= require bootstrap-sprockets

you can check the following link https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap-sass
