    I had this error before and that made me switch ruby/rails development to linux. I still program in Windows, but i’m using Vagrant +
    VirtualBox to run the project on a linux environment.

    Unfortunately some (few) gems doesn’t work very well on Windows. So I made the switch. Anyway, that’s some things that you can try before “making the move” (although I suggest that you do it anyway, so you can isolate your running environment while still using your favorite IDE at Windows/OS X):

    1. Try to install nodeJS. Sometimes it solves the problem, although I cannot guarantee nothing.
    2. Don’t use LESS. Use SASS instead, since it’s Rails’ default for the asset pipeline.
    3. Again. Switch to Vagrant +
      VirtualBox or even Docker. There are plenty of tutorials how to setup your project using them.

    On Windows, for Twitter bootstrap without therubyracer gem on windows

    Try add this lines on your Gemfile

    # Bundle edge Rails instead: gem 'rails', github: 'rails/rails'
gem 'bootstrap-sass-extras'
gem "twitter-bootstrap-rails"

    type bundle install
