Missing tailwind.css in production

[wiiikiii]

I am running freebsd in production.

Locally I am preparing for production

bundle exec rake assets:precompile RAILS_ENV=production

the following file has been created

I, [2021-12-23T15:20:13.950831 #72321] INFO -- : Writing dev.site/public/assets/tailwind-9a9d4d350c33eade01e355193e6b277f587e92f4a1bd036122cd72af203f15a1.css

and sync the all file to the server.

rsync -aPv public/assets public/packs server.name:/home/www/site/public/

after touch tmp/restart.txt in production I get the error in production log.

ActionView::Template::Error (The asset "tailwind.css" is not present in the asset pipeline.

The tailwind.css exists in app/assets/builds/

I came across this issue found a workaround from the log while deploying. Checkout the log below.

remote: -----> Detecting rake tasks
remote: -----> Preparing app for Rails asset pipeline
remote:        Running: rake assets:precompile
remote:        ERROR: Cannot find the tailwindcss executable for x86_64-linux in /tmp/build_5e1bf869/vendor/bundle/ruby/3.0.0/gems/tailwindcss-rails-2.0.2/exe
remote:        If you're using bundler, please make sure you're on the latest bundler version:
remote:
remote:          gem install bundler
remote:          bundle update --bundler
remote:
remote:        Then make sure your lock file includes this platform by running:
remote:
remote:          bundle lock --add-platform x86_64-linux
remote:          bundle install
remote:
remote:        See `bundle lock --help` output for details.
remote:        Asset precompilation completed (1.07s)
remote:        Cleaning assets
remote:        Running: rake assets:clean
remote: -----> Detecting rails configuration

Looks like this is an issue that tailwind is not available for arm. For now I got it fixed by adding linux platform to Gemfile.lock using:

bundle lock --add-platform x86_64-linux

Probably #112 might fix this issue.

@wiiikiii is your issue solved when using the latest release (v 2.0.3)?

[gorka]

Same thing is happening to me. I'm running OpenBSD in production. I set up the whole thing locally and then rsync the same way @wiiikiii is doing and I'm getting the same error.

I'm with Rails 7.0.0 and tailwindcss-rails 2.0.4.

[ghost]

Same goes for me, with platform 'x86_64-linux' in production and locally on 'arm64-darwin-21'. I get also the above error.
Running the server in development mode works fine.

I am on Rails 7.0.1 and tailwindcss-rails 2.0.4

Edit:

If I change the following parameter in the production config from:

config.assets.compile = false

to

config.assets.compile = true

It doesn't throw the error any more. I know that's not ideal. Any ideas how to properly fix this?

If you're running on separate platforms, you need to add the platforms needed. See https://github.com/rails/tailwindcss-rails#check-bundler-platforms
