I updated the ionic version to last version, and now when I do 'ionic setup sass' it's return

Copied from original issue: ionic-team/ionic-framework#3049

Could you paste the contents from ionic info?

Scanning the node-sass issues, it looks like theres an issue filed about this and Node v0.12

[toby1kenobi]

I have this issue too, ionic info shows:

Your system information:

OS: Windows 8.1
Node Version: v0.12.0
Cordova CLI: 4.3.0
Ionic Version: 1.0.0-rc.0
Ionic CLI Version: 1.3.14

Is there a work around, or fix, do you know?

[jbavari]

@toby1kenobi can you post some of the error log as you saw them? It'd help to see that.

Or, did you have the same output as the original poster?

[jbavari]

@toby1kenobi and @mifama - Try updating your package.json file - change gulp-sass to be this:

"gulp-sass": "^1.3.3",

This should bump gulp-sass to use node-sass 2.x, which should resolve that issue.

[jbavari]

Closing - since this is more of a node-sass and gulp-sass issue.

[toby1kenobi]

Sorry for delay, will try your suggestion

[jbavari]

Please do. I was able to recreate it last night on my Windows machine like you had, and bumping that version solved the issue.

One other thing to note - at first I had trouble since Python is required, I installed 3.5, that had some issues. I found a stackoverflow post that specified using Python 2.7, which also helped.

Not sure if that is absolutely required though.

[toby1kenobi]

Brilliant, that did it - thanks!

[jbavari]

Yep. Were you running python 2.7 or 3.5?

[toby1kenobi]

2.7 - I was anyway, but as a result of some previous node-related situation
