minimal-mistakes: Conversion error: Jekyll::Converters::Scss encountered an error while converting '/assets/css/main.scss'

FWIW I think I saw this issue caused by two lines each containing --- at the top of an .scss file; I don’t remember why I’d added them (likely a hack to get something about Jekyll-plumbing/processing to work, maybe no longer necessary?), but removing them seemed to resolve this error.

What Should i do i have same error Conversion error: Jekyll::Converters::Scss encountered an error while converting ‘assets/css/style.scss’:

Please help me in that…

I got this build error : Conversion error: Jekyll::Converters::Scss encountered an error while converting 'assets/css/main.scss': Invalid GBK character "\xE2" on line 54 here is main.scss file:

---
# Only the main Sass file needs front matter (the dashes are enough)
---

@charset "utf-8";

@import "minimal-mistakes/skins/{{ site.minimal_mistakes_skin | default: 'default' }}"; // skin
@import "minimal-mistakes"; // main partials

if I remove ‘—’ then build with no error ，but can’t get main.css file

update: I found a way can solve it, but I don’t know why.

put this code Encoding.default_external = Encoding.find('utf-8') into D:\applications\Ruby25-x64\lib\ruby\gems\2.5.0\gems\sass-3.7.4\lib\sass\engine.rb file like this:

......
51 require 'sass/importers'
52 require 'sass/shared'
53 require 'sass/media'
54 require 'sass/supports'
55
56 Encoding.default_external = Encoding.find('utf-8')
57
58 module Sass
......

Had a free second and looked at you _sass partials. Wonder if line 42 in variables.scss is your problem. ======= underneath // Links is not valid and probably breaking the compiler. If this existed before updating to Jekyll 3 then perhaps you just got lucky that it didn’t fail… or silently failed. When in doubt diff against the files in my repo to see where the errors might have creeped in.

I had the same problem, and solved it this way. Many thanks!
