  1. POASP.Net MVC4 bundle for less files not being rendered when debug set to false
    text
    copied!<p>In a simple ASP.Net MVC4 test application, I installed the dotless NuGet package and <a href="http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/mvc-4/bundling-and-minification" rel="noreferrer">followed this tutorial</a>. </p> <p>My <code>.less</code> files are being correctly parsed to CSS and work fine when <code>debug=true</code>.</p> <pre><code>&lt;link href="/Public/less/main.less" rel="stylesheet"/&gt; &lt;link href="/Public/less/home.less" rel="stylesheet"/&gt; &lt;link href="/Public/less/a.less" rel="stylesheet"/&gt; &lt;link href="/Public/less/b.less" rel="stylesheet"/&gt; &lt;link href="/Public/less/c.less" rel="stylesheet"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>However when I set <code>debug=false</code> in order to have it minify and combine to a single stylesheet, I get this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;link href="/Public/less?v=" rel="stylesheet"/&gt; // NOT WORKING! </code></pre> <p>Here's my bundle configuration file; again, taken directly from the tutorial:</p> <pre><code>public class BundleConfig { // For more information on Bundling, visit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=254725 public static void RegisterBundles(BundleCollection bundles) { // Compile .less files and create a bundle for them. var lessBundle = new Bundle("~/Public/less").Include( "~/Public/less/main.less", "~/Public/less/home.less", "~/Public/less/a.less", "~/Public/less/b.less", "~/Public/less/c.less"); lessBundle.Transforms.Add(new LessTransform()); lessBundle.Transforms.Add(new CssMinify()); bundles.Add(lessBundle); } } </code></pre> <p>And in my Layout file:</p> <pre><code>&lt;head&gt; @Styles.Render("~/Public/less") &lt;/head&gt; </code></pre> <p>And here's my LessTransform class:</p> <pre><code>public class LessTransform : IBundleTransform { public void Process(BundleContext context, BundleResponse response) { response.Content = dotless.Core.Less.Parse(response.Content); response.ContentType = "text/css"; } } </code></pre> <hr> <p>Any ideas on why the bundle is not working properly on <code>debug=false</code>?</p>
