I was trying to run a github page with Jekyll theme,and the website runs fine locally. However, when I try to urn in on htttps://username.github.io, GitHub cannot build the website.
I got the following error message :
Your site is having problems building: Your SCSS file myblog/assets/main.scss has an error on line 1: File to import not found or unreadable: minimaless.
The main.scss :
---
# Only the main Sass file needs front matter (the dashes are enough)
---
@import "minimaless";
It seems to be the path to the .scss file expected by GitHub is different from where the Jekyll theme put it. I checked some posts mentioned that I should put the absolute path of .scss in _config.yml file.
It seems to be the path to the .scss file expected by GitHub is different from where the Jekyll theme put it. I checked some posts link mentioned that I should put the absolute path of .scss in the directory of urlbase, which is /myblog. But I am not familiar with ruby, so I am not sure how should I do it.
The folder structure is like this :
myblog/ - assets/
- main.scss
- _sasss/
- minimaless.scss
- minimaless/
- basic.scss
- layout.scss
- hight-lighting.scss
- _config.yml
This is my GitHub page folder :
The issue could be because your source contents are within a subdirectory myblog. Try moving all the contents to the root of your repository.
It could also be because of the following in your config file:
theme: minimaless
#remote_theme: brettinternet/minimaless
theme: minimaless is not supported on GitHub Pages. Comment it out.
And finally, _site directory should not be checked into version control. Delete it from your repository and then add an entry for it in your .gitignore file.
