Today I got suddenly (without doing any dev) this error message. I googled it and found that I am not the only one to have it.

Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘Exception’ with message ‘expected color value: failed at `background-color: darken(@inputBackground, 1%);` line: 545’ in /var/sites/m/makanez.net/public_html/plugins/system/t3/includes/lessphp/lessc.inc.php:3258 Stack trace: #0 /var/sites/m/makanez.net/public_html/plugins/system/t3/includes/lessphp/lessc.inc.php(1862): lessc_parser->throwError(‘expected color …’, 11828) #1 /var/sites/m/makanez.net/public_html/plugins/system/t3/includes/lessphp/lessc.inc.php(1070): lessc->throwError(‘expected color …’) #2 /var/sites/m/makanez.net/public_html/plugins/system/t3/includes/lessphp/lessc.inc.php(919): lessc->assertColor(Array) #3 /var/sites/m/makanez.net/public_html/plugins/system/t3/includes/lessphp/lessc.inc.php(926): lessc->colorArgs(Array) #4 : lessc->lib_darken(Array, Object(T3Less)) #5 /var/sites/m/makanez.net/public_html/plugins/system/t3/includes/lessphp/lessc.inc.php(1275): call_user_func(Array, Array, Object(T3Less)) #6 /var/sites/m/makanez.net/public_html/plugins in /var/sites/m/makanez.net/public_html/plugins/system/t3/includes/lessphp/lessc.inc.php on line 3258

@aratype: I have checked your site, however I could not detect the issue you mentioned.

Could you let me know steps to reproduce the issue. Any additional information will be helpful as well.

Thank you, the issue happened to me again, I think in the high traffic time…

If you google this issue you will find it happened to other users 🙂

For this I was asking to reduce the size of image in the front end to the real size of the box. In that way I will have the lighter possible images in the front end and have no risk for the low speed connection.

We’re used Less css for development only. Once done, we compile Less to css and join it. This helps:
– Reduce the time to load site
– Fix css load issue in IE (with IE, it’s only load maximium 32 files in one site)
