How can I fix 404 error importing css on GitHub Pages?

I currently have the following Git Repository: https://github.com/SebastianGode/ansible-collection-cloud/tree/gh-pages And the GitHub Page link: https://sebastiangode.github.io/ansible-collection-cloud/

The problem is that GitHub Pages will only solve the index.html and will throw an 404 for all required css and image stuff: enter image description here

As the documentation is getting automatically generated by a travis-ci pipeline it's probably impossible to change paths, but as it works when hosted it locally it also should work on GitHub pages.

Is there any solution to this problem?

Solution

  • I fixed it.

    GitHub has Jekyll running behind it which will mess up special paths (here the underscore paths). You can disable jekyll by just creating a .nojekyll file in the root directory of the branch. If you use travis-CI for something like that and run a tox script just call the command touch {toxinidir}/.nojekyll

    This will result in a working website for me.
