Did you do gem install compass or sudo gem install compass ?

What does gem list --local compass output?

So it’s not in your PATH. You didn’t answer this question:

Did you do gem install compass or sudo gem install compass ?

OK, one more time:

Did you do gem install compass or sudo gem install compass ?

The answer is not “yes”, it’s which command did you use?.

Odd, but apparently it didn’t get added to your existing PATH.

You’ll have to find where it got installed and add that location to your
PATH manually.

Might try

locate “bin/compass”

to see what bin directory it is installed in and compare against your
path.
