Anything else?

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue while setting up the Chirpy theme on my Jekyll blog. Here's my setup:

• Environment:

  • Operating System: AWS Lightsail Ubuntu 24.04
  • Ruby Version: 3.2.2
  • Jekyll Version: (please include your Jekyll version here, e.g., 4.x)

• What I'm Trying to Do:
  I am running a Jekyll blog on my local Ubuntu server, using it as the backend for a GitHub Pages blog. The default Jekyll theme works fine, but when I attempt to switch to the Chirpy theme, I encounter the following error during the build process:

  Error: Can't find stylesheet to import.
  

• Steps I Followed:

  1. Installed Ruby 3.2.2 and Jekyll on my Ubuntu server.
  2. Cloned the Chirpy theme repository and added the necessary configurations (_config.yml) to my project.
  3. Ran the build command:

     bundle exec jekyll b -d "_site"

     However, the build fails with the above error.

• Troubleshooting Done:

  1. Verified that all Sass files and their paths are correctly referenced.
  2. Replaced @import with @use in the main.scss file to comply with Dart Sass standards, but the issue persists.
  3. Cleared Jekyll cache and _site directory before retrying the build.
  4. Updated all dependencies (bundle update) and confirmed the jekyll-sass-converter version is up to date.
  5. Checked for potential conflicts between files in the _tabs, assets, and root directories, but couldn't identify the root cause.

• Expected Outcome:
  The Jekyll build process should complete successfully, generating the necessary files in the _site directory without errors.

• Actual Outcome:
  The build fails with the following error:

  Error: Can't find stylesheet to import.
  

I would greatly appreciate any guidance on resolving this issue. Thank you in advance for your support!

Best regards,
padeume.

Additional Suggestions:

1. Attach any relevant logs or directory structures (like _sass, assets, or main.scss) if you're comfortable sharing them.
2. Make sure to specify the exact Chirpy version you're using (e.g., gem "jekyll-theme-chirpy", "~> 5.x" or a Git clone).

This will make your issue clear, polite, and professional! 😊
