I’m trying to use Jekyll Build to generate my \_site files but I’m stumbling into the following errors in terminal: Not sure what steps I need to take to move forward. Ahhh. ``` Christians-MacBook-Pro:faculty christians$ jekyll build WARN: Unresolved specs during Gem::Specification.reset: rb-fsevent (>= 0.9.4, ~> 0.9) rb-inotify (>= 0.9.7, ~> 0.9) WARN: Clearing out unresolved specs.

(Gem::LoadError) The solution may be in the error message above. Have you tried doing what it suggests by prepending the Jekyll commands with `bundle exec`? ```auto bundle exec jekyll build bundle exec jekyll serve ``` ---

Okay, I did the following in terminal: `bundle exec jekyll build` and it generated my \_site directory. However, in Google’s Inspector, I’m receiving the following new error: `Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND` Seems to not be locating my `main.css` file. Sounds like that’s a whole different problem now. Any suggestions? ---

Sounds like a path issue with that asset. You have a public repo to help with troubleshooting? ---

You don’t need to add the extension to your `import` statement. ```diff - @import "normalize.css"; + @import "normalize"; ``` If the above raises any flags, rename **`normalize.css`** to **`normalize.scss`** ---

Okay, I renamed **normalize.css** to **normalize.scss** and changed my `@import statement` to what you suggested. I receive this in terminal now: ``` Conversion error: Jekyll::Converters::Scss encountered an error while converting 'assets/main.scss': File to import not found or unreadable: normalize. Load path: /Users/christians/Documents/faculty/_sass on line 3 ``` ---

Ah yes, I forgot to mention… your new **`normalize.scss`** should be in `_sass` not in `assets` ---

Hmm—I did that and my styles are still not generated in my `_site` directory.
