# GitHub Pages 404 Fix - Applied ✅
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem
|
||||
GitHub Pages was deploying but showing 404 errors. The GitHub Actions logs showed only the "deploy" job running, not the "build" job.
|
||||
|
||||
## Root Cause
|
||||
The workflow was using `actions/jekyll-build-pages@v1` which requires specific setup, but wasn't properly building the Jekyll site before deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
## Solution Applied
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Updated Workflow (`.github/workflows/pages.yml`)
|
||||
**Changed from:** Using `actions/jekyll-build-pages@v1` (pre-built action)
|
||||
**Changed to:** Manual Jekyll build with proper Ruby setup
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- name: Setup Ruby
|
||||
uses: ruby/setup-ruby@v1
|
||||
with:
|
||||
ruby-version: '3.1'
|
||||
bundler-cache: true
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Build with Jekyll
|
||||
run: bundle exec jekyll build --baseurl "${{ steps.pages.outputs.base_path }}"
|
||||
env:
|
||||
JEKYLL_ENV: production
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Added Gemfile
|
||||
Created `Gemfile` with GitHub Pages dependencies:
|
||||
- `github-pages` gem (includes Jekyll and plugins)
|
||||
- `jekyll-seo-tag`, `jekyll-sitemap`, `jekyll-feed`
|
||||
- `kramdown-parser-gfm` (for GitHub Flavored Markdown)
|
||||
- `webrick` (required for Ruby 3.0+)
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Updated .gitignore
|
||||
Added Jekyll-specific ignores:
|
||||
```
|
||||
/.bundle/
|
||||
/vendor/
|
||||
/_site/
|
||||
/.jekyll-cache/
|
||||
/.jekyll-metadata
|
||||
Gemfile.lock
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Verification Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Check GitHub Actions:**
|
||||
- Go to: https://github.com/AeThex-Corporation/AeThex-OS/actions
|
||||
- Latest workflow should show **both** "build" and "deploy" jobs (green)
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Wait for Deployment:**
|
||||
- Full build takes ~2-3 minutes
|
||||
- Watch for "Deploy to GitHub Pages" completion
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Visit Your Site:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
https://aethex-corporation.github.io/AeThex-OS/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Test Documentation Hub:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
https://aethex-corporation.github.io/AeThex-OS/docs/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Test OS Specification:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
https://aethex-corporation.github.io/AeThex-OS/docs/AETHEX_OS_SPECIFICATION
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Expected Build Output
|
||||
|
||||
You should now see in GitHub Actions logs:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
✅ Checkout
|
||||
✅ Setup Ruby
|
||||
✅ Setup Pages
|
||||
✅ Build with Jekyll
|
||||
- Configuration file: _config.yml
|
||||
- Source: /home/runner/work/AeThex-OS/AeThex-OS
|
||||
- Destination: /home/runner/work/AeThex-OS/AeThex-OS/_site
|
||||
- Generating...
|
||||
- Jekyll Feed: Generating feed for posts
|
||||
- done in X.XX seconds.
|
||||
✅ Upload artifact
|
||||
✅ Deploy to GitHub Pages
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Issues & Solutions
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue: Still getting 404
|
||||
**Solution:** Clear browser cache or try incognito mode
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue: Build job fails with Ruby errors
|
||||
**Solution:** Check Gemfile.lock was generated properly. If not:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
bundle install
|
||||
git add Gemfile.lock
|
||||
git commit -m "chore: Add Gemfile.lock"
|
||||
git push
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue: CSS/assets not loading
|
||||
**Solution:** Verify `baseurl` in `_config.yml` matches repo name:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
baseurl: "/AeThex-OS"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue: Links broken
|
||||
**Solution:** Use absolute paths from baseurl:
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[Link](/AeThex-OS/docs/page)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Files Modified/Created
|
||||
|
||||
### Created:
|
||||
- ✅ `Gemfile` - Jekyll dependencies
|
||||
- ✅ `docs/GITHUB_PAGES_404_FIX.md` - This troubleshooting guide
|
||||
|
||||
### Modified:
|
||||
- ✅ `.github/workflows/pages.yml` - Fixed build process
|
||||
- ✅ `.gitignore` - Added Jekyll ignores
|
||||
|
||||
## Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Monitor the build** at: https://github.com/AeThex-Corporation/AeThex-OS/actions
|
||||
2. **Wait 2-3 minutes** for complete deployment
|
||||
3. **Visit site** to confirm it works
|
||||
4. **If still 404**, check:
|
||||
- GitHub Pages is enabled in Settings → Pages
|
||||
- Source is set to "GitHub Actions"
|
||||
- Build completed successfully (green checkmark)
|
||||
|
||||
## Technical Details
|
||||
|
||||
### Why the Original Workflow Failed
|
||||
`actions/jekyll-build-pages@v1` expects a specific setup:
|
||||
- Minimal config in `_config.yml`
|
||||
- No Gemfile or only specific gems
|
||||
- Standard Jekyll directory structure
|
||||
|
||||
Our project has:
|
||||
- Custom theme configuration
|
||||
- Multiple collections
|
||||
- Complex navigation
|
||||
- Root-level markdown files
|
||||
|
||||
### Why the New Workflow Works
|
||||
- Explicit Ruby setup with version control
|
||||
- Manual Jekyll build with full control
|
||||
- Proper baseurl injection from GitHub Pages
|
||||
- Bundle caching for faster builds
|
||||
- Production environment variable set
|
||||
|
||||
## Rollback (If Needed)
|
||||
|
||||
If this causes issues, revert with:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git revert bf4ea61
|
||||
git push origin main
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then investigate alternative solutions.
