LibSass error during compileing at a pipline on build server

recently this error has been occurring more frequently in various piplines. A rebuilt helps to eliminate the error. Have somebody the same problem. Perhaps a solution.

Warning : Libsass internal: Error (Replacement Character created): …mappview\data\wwwRoot\BR Visu\CSS\pages\mappview\ContentTr_p.scss.css’ - retrying
Error: Generic libSass error

Hi, this can be problem with encoding, could it be problem with original source file storing and problem is fixed with character replacement? maybe check the file before replacement. hard to say from this information only.

updated info from my colleague:

unfortunately this is a known problem that we cannot solve. From time to time Libsass does not recognize the character set (Unicode) and then it thinks it has to output the ‘replacement characters’ (black diamond with white heart). we have tried to debug the code once, it looks as if the C code is not thread-safe. Unfortunately, we have not found a solution, as the DLL has not been supported for almost 10 years. We would all have to switch to a successor product (Dart-Sass?). So it’s clearly a tool problem and has nothing to do with the sources
