Created attachment 1393774 [details] Traceback of the error Description of problem: The customer might need to run this rake task (assets:precompile) after a migration from previous version of the product - it happened in the past and I'm unable to asses if it might be needed again. In case we don't have a decisive "No, can't happen" on this, we should probably fix this / keep this option in. In addition, we (as QE) need to be able to precompile assets in case we need a workaround or hotfix for automated tests to work properly. We are currently investigating some issues and are unable to move forward because of this. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.9.0.20 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. # vmdb 2. # rake assets:precompile Actual results: Traceback attached. Expected results: Assets can be recompiled. Additional info:
We precompile assets during builds. I know it 'worked' in the past on CFME appliances, but as far as I know that's not something we support. When we started working on cfme-5.9, we (Jason and myself) revisited this and it was decided the extra packages that exist on appliances (which are needed to just precompile assets) should be removed.
