This happened before whilst I was developing a site and never resolved itself. Something happens and all my pages return errors like this: -------- SyntaxError in Siteview#index Showing app/views/siteview/index.rhtml where line #8 raised: compile error ./script/../config/../app/views/siteview/index.rhtml:8: syntax error ./script/../config/../app/views/siteview/index.rhtml:9: syntax error ./script/../config/../app/views/siteview/index.rhtml:10: syntax error Extracted source (around line #8): 5: <% elsif @team == nil and @team_name == nil %> 6: <h1>Welcome</h1> 7: <p>Please select the closest team to you for more information</p> 8: <div id="city_detail"> 9: <h2>Point your mouse over a team to view more information</h2> 10: </div> 11: <div id="team_list" class="clear_list"> --------- If I refresh the page it will come up with a slightly different error. Often with some: ./script/../config/../app/views/siteview/index.rhtml:8: Invalid char `\266'' in expression (the invalid char number varying each time I refresh) I am very puzzled by it and don''t really know where to start to look. From flicking around internet it seems its something to with how the server is running and perhaps how the end of line markers work. The strange thing is the suddeness of it coming on, from everything working fine to it doing this on every page. There was no reset of the server involved, and when I did restart the server it didn''t make any difference. I am using: ruby 1.8.4 rails 1.1.6 on a windows xp system cheers Nick -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

A bit more searching and I found
http://webonrails.wordpress.com/2006/08/10/tab-problem-in-rails-rhtml-files/
which says the problem is about having tabs in rhtml (and possibly
something to do with RMagick).
The solution is to put
template = template.gsub(/\t/," ")
in base.rb found in
{ruby base dir}\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\actionpack-1.12.5\lib\action_view
(or similar)
as the first line of the compile_template function (line 499 on mine)
a restart of the server later and it is working

Thanks. it fixed my problem I am not sure if it is because I have been starting to use Rmagick or that I have been messing with tab sizes in Eclipse or something else a really annoying error Peter --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
