I believe this happened after upgrading to Ruby 2.0.0, and then I tried my gems needed to watch the compass. I also installed Ruby 1.9.1 and installed gems to watch the compass and got the same error. I tried changing the permissions for the .listen_test file, but it does not exist.
Here --trace:
compass watch --trace
