I got a problem when adding bootstrap into my rail project. The error message is given as:

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

Output

I have tried the following two solutions but none of them works for me.

Solution 1: Couldn't find file 'twitter/bootstrap' (ROR)

Solution 2: Sprockets::FileNotFound couldn't find file 'bootstrap' with type 'text/css'

In here

It says,

  1. Rename your application.css to application.scss.

  2. Delete *= require self and require tree

  3. Add @import bootstrap-sprockets and bootstrap at the last line of the file.

Hope this helps.

I had the same issue.

First you need add gem gem 'bootstrap-sass', '3.3.6' to your Gemfile then bundle install then you must 

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

to your scss file. Hope it will help you.

Thanks! Adding gem 'bootstrap-sass' seemed to be the critical piece. Do the gems, 'bootstrap-sass' and 'rails-sass', overlap in functions? Do they conflict?

If Bootstrap was installed with yarn, I found that reinstalling it solved the issue:

yarn add bootstrap
