Error Output is Not Helpful

I am currently getting an error screen which says:

/* Error in fluent.less: */
I have no idea why its in chinese - and I have no idea what it means after running through google translate.
Any help would be appreciated.

Less.js sometimes errors without outputting the reason. I've just uploaded a new version to nuget that include LESS 1.1.5 - please update to that.
In your case though, this looks like an encoding issue. Any chance you could send the offending file (duncan.smart gmail)?
ok. updated to that and I am still getting the same error. I have set the encoding of all files to UTF-8. any other changes? I will try and track down the offending file.
I am currently getting this with an empty file. :(
Dru, I saved the "Chinese" message you got in Notepad as unicode txt and opened in a HEX editor and could see the actual error message:
CScript Error: Loading your settings failed. (Access is denied. )
Which according to http://www.mvps.org/scripting/faq/wshfaq.htm means:
...generally means you either don't have read permissions for HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings or the equivalent key in HKCU. You need to be able to read both of those to run WSH.
So you might want to check that what whatever AppPool account you're using has those read permissions.
For my part I'm clearly outputting something which is ASCII-encoded but treating as Unicode - which I need to address.
sweet - got the latest version and all is happy - thanks.
