On GitHub Pages: Minima Build Problems

Help
1

I have been pulling my hair out about this for hours:

My repo: GitHub - Jp4Mobile/jp4mobile.github.io: Jp4Mobile Website

It builds fine locally, but when I push to github, I get the following error:

Complete error message:

Load path: /usr/local/bundle/gems/jekyll-theme-primer-0.6.0/_sass on line 1

The main issue to my eyes is: Error: File to import not found or unreadable: minima.

This is loaded in my ./docs/assets/main.scss file in the line @import "minima"; statement.

I cannot figure out what I’m doing incorrectly.

As I’m a new user, I cannot include links to the specific files that I think may be misconfigured, but they can be easily found in the above linked repo:

  • Gemfile
  • _config.yml
  • assets/main.scss

Just to be clear, I’ve spent the last few days trying multiple ways to get this to work.
I’ve kept the state of things in my question to get it working in the jp/brokenBranch branch.

it looks like you are using one theme but then trying to import a sass file from another one? and that one you have installed locally but it doesn’t exist for the build? just a guess based on the error message.

Thank you for reaching out, @rdyar. (As you can imagine this has been driving me nuts for days.)
I found that if I ignored the documentation about putting the jekyll files/setup in the ./docs directory and just putting them all in the root directory. The site would build properly.
I liked the idea of having all that in the /docs directory, but having it work properly is awesome.

Both are options, but you have to tell GitHub about it. Make sure you have selected “deploying form a branch”, the correct branch, and /(root) (as that’s where your files are). Like this:

If you want to use /docs instead, you have to move everything into that directory first.
