Grunt dist commenting out css file - html

When I run grunt from the terminal to create a dist version of my site, the css link is commented out in the html file of the dist folder.
Before running grunt, the <head>…</head> is this:
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>…</title>
<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, maximum-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, user-scalable=0, initial-scale=1">
<!-- Place favicon.ico and apple-touch-icon.png in the root directory -->
<!-- build:css(.) styles/vendor.css -->
<!-- bower:css -->
<!-- endbower -->
<!-- endbuild -->
<!-- build:css(.tmp) styles/main.css -->
<!-- Gridset CSS -->
<!--[if (!IE) | (gt IE 9)]><!--><link rel="stylesheet" href="./styles/gridset.css" /><!--<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 9]><link rel="stylesheet" href="./styles/gridset-ie-9.css" /><![endif]-->
<!--[if lte IE 8]><link rel="stylesheet" href="./styles/gridset-ie-lte8.css" /><![endif]-->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/normalize.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/main.css">
<!-- endbuild -->
</head>
After running grunt, the ink to the css file is being commented out, which is obviously making the dist version of the site to look awful without any css attatched.
You can see what it looks like after running the grunt command below:
<head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title></title> <meta name="description" content=""> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,maximum-scale=1,minimum-scale=1,user-scalable=0,initial-scale=1"> <!-- Place favicon.ico and apple-touch-icon.png in the root directory --> <!--[if lte IE 8]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/main.0b0cc1af.css">
<![endif]-->
As you can see, it comments out the main.css file, then cuts off the rest of the <head>…</head>
Also, I have added my Gruntfile, if that can be any help to anybody:

Thanks in advance!

The issue seems to be related to the conditional comments. Looks like usemin is not handling them correctly.
You can solve it by reversing the order of things, for example:
<!--[if (!IE) | (gt IE 9)]><!-->
<!-- build:css(.tmp) styles/gridset.css -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./styles/gridset.css" />
<!-- endbuild -->
<!--<![endif]-->
<!-- build:css(.tmp) styles/main.css -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/main.css">
<!-- endbuild -->

webpack load some html file into index.html (like web component)

i want to separate my project file to multi files.
with sass and JavaScript import, i can do that just for styles and scripts.
but i want to separate HTML files too.
i dont use any frameworks just webpack.
according to webpack documentation, we can do that with interpolation
https://webpack.js.org/loaders/html-loader/#interpolation
require("html-loader?interpolate!./file.html");
<div>${require('./components/gallery.html')}</div>
but i got error:

Grunt on html css and js file 404 (Not Found)

After fixing my css/scss compiling I'm now try to run the css on my html file, but I keep getting:
GET http://localhost:8080/dist/css/screen.css 404 (Not Found)localhost/:26
GET http://localhost:8080/source/js/modernizr.js 404 (Not Found)localhost/:28
Now, my paths on my html files is the follow:
<link href="dist/css/screen.css" media="screen, projection" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script type"text/javascript" src="source/js/modernizr.js"></script>
What am I doing wrong? is it an html path issue? or is it a gruntfile.js issue?
something must missing from either the html or gruntFile.js
hope it makes sense

To get HTTP response from http://localhost:8080 you'll need a http server running on your computer listening on port 8080. If you have no such server running, you will get always 404 error.
E.g. on Node.js the most used is Express: http://www.tutorialspoint.com/nodejs/nodejs_express_framework.htm.
With this piece of code you'll get "Hello World" response on http://localhost:8080 and handle the routes /dist and /source:
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.send('Hello World');
})
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'dist')));
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'source')));
var server = app.listen(8080, function () {
var host = server.address().address
var port = server.address().port
console.log("Example app listening at http://%s:%s", host, port)
})

Yeoman generator-webapp prints the inner text of scripts and title nodes inside the window

I scaffolded a project using the YEOMAN generator-webapp (I'm running Nodejs v4.0.0, NPM 3.5.3, Bower 1.7.5, Yeoman 1.6.0). When i ran the grunt serve command everything fired up just fine. All scripts and styles got loaded without errors.
The Issue
For some reason i just can't get my head around the following issue. All browsers i have tested (chrome 47, safari 9.0.3 and mozilla 43.0.2) are showing the value of the<title></title> and <script></script> nodes as text inside the window.
The strange part is, the scripts do got executed, as seen in te console.
At first i thought it may be a LiveReload or BrowserSync problem. But even after running grunt build and serving /dist/ using http-server the error remains.
I also reinstalled the complete project after updating NPM and Bower. After running grunt serve again the problem seemed to be gone. However, after a couple of changes in the index.html file the problem reoccured. Even after returning the index.html in it's original state.
Unfortunately i couldn't find any good reading material that even talks about this issue. (this is the closest i got; https://github.com/BrowserSync/browser-sync/issues/791. I'm not sure which steps to take from here. I includes the gruntfile.js, package.json and index.html. A little help or a pointer in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately i still don't know which problem exactly causes the effects like described above. However, i did found a solution. It seem's the Yeomean generator-webapp module hasn't been maintained for a while and lost some stability. (The Yeomen crew is currently looking for maintainers)
They did released a Gulp edition of the webapp generator, which could be found here. I simply build a new project with the gulp generator and replaced the new app directory with the old one. Worked like a charm. Don't forget to install Gulp global first if you didn't already.

Grunt Sass - output errors to console?

Below is my grunt file, using grunt-sass and grunt-contrib-watch to
compile my Sass. Is it possible to console log the error to chrome?
module.exports = function(grunt) {
// Project configuration.
grunt.initConfig({
// Sass to CSS
sass: {
app: {
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: 'wp-content/themes/bones/library/scss',
src: ['*.scss'],
dest: 'wp-content/themes/bones/library/css',
ext: '.css'
}],
},
options: {
sourceMap: true,
outputStyle: 'nested',
imagePath: "../",
}
},
watch: {
sass: {
files: ['wp-content/themes/bones/library/scss/{,*/}*.{scss,sass}'],
tasks: ['sass']
},
options: {
livereload: true,
spawn: false
}
},
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-sass');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.registerTask('default', ['sass', 'watch']);
};

grunt serve:dist using local file paths

I'm using grunt to build and deploy a simple angular web app that uses bootstrap and font-awesome. The project was initially created using yeoman generator-angular and built using grunt serve:dist
I noticed the URLS in some of my css files are not being revved or minified properly.
Edit: I've been reading about grunt tasks and I think I've narrowed it down to the rebase in cssmin/clean.
Adding noRebase: true to the cssmin options seems to fix some of the issues but cause others.
Without noRebase:true, this is in the minified css:
body{background-image:url(c:/dev/myapp/.tmp/images/ricepaper_v3.png);
#font-face{font-family:FontAwesome;src:url(/bower_components/components-font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?v=4.0.3);
Obviously I don't want it to reference bower_components or my local path.
With noRebase: true:
body{background-image:url(../images/ricepaper_v3.png);
#font-face{font-family:FontAwesome;src:url(../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?v=4.0.3);
This fixes the fonts (which were never revved so the name is correct) but breaks the background image since the image is now named something like "a120f004.ricepaper_v3.png"
My gruntfilejs:

I noticed in the logs that it was only fontawesome that was not being revved. the background image is being revved, but for some reason it duplicates the css and doesnt delete the first local path.
Anyways, long story short I solved the issue by writing a grunt copy task and calling it in the grunt build. It just copies the bower component fonts to the expected dist folder. This seems like a fine solution as it will always use the bower updated fonts.
copy: {
...
, fontawesome: {
expand:true,
cwd: '<%= yeoman.app %>/bower_components/components-font-awesome/fonts',
dest: '<%= yeoman.dist %>/bower_components/components-font-awesome/fonts',
src: [ '**' ]
}
}
