Solution

  • Sometimes, in the late hours of the night, the jekyll command is aliased to hyde. And of those times, sometimes it will respond to your request pleasantly and run as expected, but other times it can be quite unfriendly. When that happens, I usually wait until morning and then try again when it's behaving better.

    That or the executable is missing from your path. Which is the case here? Who can say? But it's probably the first one.
