Hi,  
I added amp-jekyll plugin in my Gemfile

gem “amp-jekyll”, “1.0.2”

> **[juusaw/amp-jekyll](https://github.com/juusaw/amp-jekyll)**
>
> Build Accelerated Mobile Page versions of your Jekyll posts - juusaw/amp-jekyll

I Placed the layout file (amp.html) to the \_layouts folder

I added the following code in the footer.html

```
{% if page.path contains '_posts' %}
  <link rel="amphtml" href="{{ page.id | prepend: '/YOURDIR' | prepend: site.baseurl | prepend: site.url | append: '.html' }}">
{% endif %} 

```

And when I want to run `jekyll build`

I get the following error

```
MBP-de-Admin:inger admin$ jekyll build
Configuration file: /Users/admin/Documents/Perso/Site-Internet/Jekyll/inger/_config.yml
            Source: /Users/admin/Documents/Perso/Site-Internet/Jekyll/inger
       Destination: /Users/admin/Documents/Perso/Site-Internet/Jekyll/inger/_site

      Generating... 
  Liquid Exception: undefined method `start_with?' for nil:NilClass in /_layouts/amp.html
jekyll 3.6.2 | Error: undefined method `start_with?' for nil:NilClass

```

Thank you in advance for your answers

no idea if this is your problem but did you change YOURDIR?

`<link rel="amphtml" href="{{ page.id | prepend: '/YOURDIR' | prepend: site.baseurl | prepend: site.url | append: '.html' }}">`

Hi rdyar and thank you for your answer. Yes of course, I changed YOURDIR into the directory of my project

```
{% if page.path contains '_posts' %}
  <link rel="amphtml" href="{{ page.id | prepend: '/inger' | prepend: site.baseurl | prepend: site.url | append: '.html' }}">
{% endif %}
```

ha ha - well had to ask.

Try running `jekyll build -V` to do a verbose log, maybe it will show more what is going on.

You can additionally run the `build` command with the `--trace` option to get more details on the error:

```auto
bundle exec jekyll build --trace

```

It’s hard to suggest a solution without seeing the site and how its set up currently…

Hi rdyar and ashmaroli and thank you for your answers. I don’t see from where is coming the error. Browsing on internet, I can see that is kind of error is generic. Here is the trace when I ran  
`MBP-de-Admin:inger admin$ jekyll build -V`

I suppose that the error occurs in index.html (or may be afterwards ?)

Here is my index.html page

The error stems from Line:19 in the `amp_filter.rb` of the `amp-jekyll` plugin…

Bring this issue up with the gem author and he’ll either tell you how to proceed or he’ll fix the bug in his code…

Thanks a lot ashmaroli, and sorry, I should have seen the error earlier. But thank you for your advice to bring the issue to the author.

Previously I loaded the plugins putting the “files.rb” (like amp\_filter.rb) into \_plugins directory. Secondly, I deleted those "files.rb’ from the \_plugins directory and used finally the loading in Gemfile. Shoudn’t I to programmatically uninstall “files.rb” (like amp\_filter.rb) from a directory placed somewhere in my computer or is it also the result of the loading of gems in Gemfile ?

Hi ashmaroli,  
I found the error. I had in my header.html (that I include in index.html) an image defined as following

`<img width="16" height="16" alt="phone icon" scr="{{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/assets/images/icons/Phone_number-16px-16px.png">`

This was causing the following error

```
MBP-de-Admin:inger admin$ bundle exec jekyll build
Configuration file: /Users/admin/Documents/Perso/Site-Internet/Jekyll/inger/_config.yml
            Source: /Users/admin/Documents/Perso/Site-Internet/Jekyll/inger
       Destination: /Users/admin/Documents/Perso/Site-Internet/Jekyll/inger/_site
 Incremental build: disabled. Enable with --incremental
      Generating... 
  Liquid Exception: undefined method `start_with?' for nil:NilClass in /_layouts/amp.html
jekyll 3.6.2 | Error: undefined method `start_with?' for nil:NilClass

```

When I remove this img tag, there no more error.

So I tried to embed an a amp-img tag like the following

`<amp-img width="16" height="16" alt="phone icon" scr="{{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/assets/images/icons/Phone_number-16px-16px.png" layout="responsive"></amp-img>`

But I can’t see the image. I tried to remove {{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}} from the url (to have a relative path) but it doesn’t work. I did as the following link explain but I have no result.

Thank you in advance for your answers

The issue could be the missing `/` between `{{ site.url }}` and `{{ site.baseurl }}`…  
To avoid confusion use the built-in URLFilters… ( `absolute_url` and `relative_url` )

```auto
<amp-img
  width="16"
  height="16"
  alt="phone icon"
  src="{{ 'assets/images/icons/Phone_number-16px-16px.png' | absolute_url }}" 
  layout="responsive">
</amp-img>

```

or

```auto
<amp-img
  width="16"
  height="16"
  alt="phone icon"
  src="{{ 'assets/images/icons/Phone_number-16px-16px.png' | relative_url }}" 
  layout="responsive">
</amp-img>

```

Hello ashmaroli and thank you for your answer. Thank you for your advice. But unfortunately nothing shows up, whatever url I set. I checked each time the url and the access to the image

Hello, I think that I integrate in a bad way the “amp.html” file according to the documentation ([https://github.com/juusaw/amp-jekyll](https://github.com/juusaw/amp-jekyll)).

I put it in the \_layouts folder but without using it somewhere else. As the images I test are in \_includes/header.html file which is the following:

> <https://github.com/flamant/fileshare/blob/master/header.html>

I can’t see the utility of the “amp.html” file. Shall I change it, integrate it somewhere, reference it somewhere ? Thank you for your answer

Have you tried pinging the plugin developer? Doesn’t appear any of us are users of it so your guess is as good as ours 🤓

Hello mmistake and thank you for your answer. I pinged the plugin developer but until now no answer. I moved forward and propose a new “header.html” wich is the following : [https://github.com/flamant/fileshare/blob/master/header\_1.html](https://github.com/flamant/fileshare/blob/master/header_1.html)

 ![18](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/jekyllrb/original/1X/0e300c83fbff556dc6830df63f958d02811c8ab1.png)  
But I have the following errors in console

I don’t understand why it doesn’t take into account my src attributes even when I hardcode the url. I checked on browser each url that I wrote and it leads to the proper image. Thank you in advance

i know nothing about amp, but their example of an amp-image tag has a closing tag that you don’t. And even if that is not needed and it is self closing I think you need a slash at the end.

@flamant, have you been able to find the solution for your problem?

If you still have troubles to get it up & running, can you share your Github repository?

So I can clone it and build your Jekyll pages locally - armed with all the debugging tools I might be able to track down the issues & errors you’re struggling with.
