Jekyll 3.7.3 | Error: Invalid scheme format: index (9

robertbeanstalk · January 3, 2019, 9:37pm

Has anyone seen an error like this? This is what happens whenever I run “bundle exec jekyll serve”. This site does not build. Any suggestions or tips as to what might cause this error?

rdyar · January 4, 2019, 3:07am

is that all the error says?
are you using any plugins?

robertbeanstalk · January 4, 2019, 1:12pm

Yep, that is all the error says. I do have a few plugins. I am also using lots of custom Liquid variables in the front matter of each markdown file.

Here are the build settings from _config.yml:

# Build settings
markdown: kramdown
theme: minima
plugins:
  - jekyll-feed
  - jekyll-contentblocks
  - jekyll-admin
  - jekyll-google-tag-manager

google:
  tag_manager:
    container_id: GTM-NNNNNNN

**Here are the details from the Gemfile:**

gem "jekyll", "~> 3.7.3"
gem "s3_website"

# This is the default theme for new Jekyll sites. You may change this to anything you like.
gem "minima", "~> 2.0"

# If you want to use GitHub Pages, remove the "gem "jekyll"" above and
# uncomment the line below. To upgrade, run `bundle update github-pages`.
# gem "github-pages", group: :jekyll_plugins

# If you have any plugins, put them here!
group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem "jekyll-feed", "~> 0.6"
  gem "jekyll-contentblocks"
  gem "jekyll-admin"
  gem "jekyll-google-tag-manager"
end

Here is a sample of a typical front matter:

There might be some useful info in the backtrace.
Please post the output from running bundle exec jekyll build --trace

robertbeanstalk · January 8, 2019, 1:42pm

Thanks for the tip. I did the backtrace and here is what it says:

The issue is in

/Users/Robert/Documents/SUPER-SCHOLAR/scholar-ejournals/_plugins/breadcrumbs.rb

This is not Jekyll’s fault.
If you post the plugin’s code in this thread, I may be able provide additional help…

Thanks much! Here is “breadcrumbs.rb”

The code for breadcrumbs.rb looks benign.
Further debugging will require local access to the repository.
The issue could simply be a single file or a result of various plugins interacting with each other.

If you have your repository hosted publicly (e.g. on GitHub, GitLab, etc), do provide us with a link to it.
We can then clone the repo locally to debug the issue.

robertbeanstalk · January 9, 2019, 2:15pm

Thanks much for looking. This repo is not currently public. It is a rather large set of more than 1,100 files. I have been able to run some other diagnostic tools to identify files with Unicode encoding errors. Of the full set I currently have a short list of 14 files that require attention. If I am unable to resolve the matter by cleaning up these files I will find a way to make the repo public for further examination.

Thanks again!

robertbeanstalk · January 15, 2019, 8:46pm

This turned out to be due to a very poorly named file. We scripted the (very basic) conversion from HTML to MD and this slipped through. I imagine the slashes and parenthesis had something to do with it.
