I have many private repositories on my GitHub. Until yesterday I was able to commit to any repository on my GitHub. But today, I am trying to change the readme.md file in my repository, I am not able to see the preview and also not able to commit as the commit button is disabled.
Actually, later I saw that I am unable to commit any file in chrome browser only , but I can commit any file in other browser (Microsoft Edge) . And also, I am able to commit from my IDE (MS Visual Studio) . So, My question is that , why I am unable to commit from Chrome only.
I found solution for this problem:
Problem is occurring due to I Added extension in chrome i.e. ad blocker extension.
So, I removed that extension and problem is solved.
Make sure you have modified/updated any contents in the README.md file. If there is no changes in the file, "Commit Changes" but will be disabled.
I had the same problem until I deactivated/trusted Ghostery for uniquely github.com
Image shows active Ghostery:
I had the same issue. I found by adding the file name you are going to create in the url can solve the issue.
yourusername/new-file-name.html. (in main)
This is my first GitHub page; I have created repository and even pasted my project into it, but when I enter the URL it gives me 404 error with "There isn't a GitHub Pages site here" description.
My project called 'weather-app' and the URL: https://salehghari.github.io/
So it should be like this: https://salehghari.github.io/weather-app/weatherapp.html
I checked your repository on Github and all the Builds under Actions are marked as Failure with the following error under Deploy:
Error: No uploaded artifact was found!
Under Build I see this:
Error: fatal: No url found for submodule path 'weather-app' in
.gitmodules Error: The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code
128
You are using a submodule but I don't see a clickable link on the repository, are you sure that is correct ? Check if this submodule is correct, there is also an issue on Github Community about this topic.
You need to configure the branch you want to use for your GitHub pages site.
These are the steps you need to follow
I deleted that repo and created another. that un-clickable folder in previous repo was caused the 404 error. Because I had pushed that folder on GitHub once so it means It had had a .git file in it. Thank you every one I appreciate your helps
Here is my GitHub repository on the gh-pages branch.
Everything looks good, I have my index.html, my CSS, JS and pictures folders.
But when I access http://roine.github.com/p1 I get HTTP 404 not found.
Any explanation and solution?
I had just one commit with all my files. I pushed an empty commit, refreshed the page and it worked.
git commit --allow-empty -m "Trigger rebuild"
git push
If this doesn't work, as #Hendrikto pointed out in the comments, check out the Github status page and make sure GitHub Pages are operational.
I did all the tricks on my repo to fix page 404 on Github Page (https://eq19.github.io/) but it kept 404'ing.
Finaly found that my browser hardly keep the 10 minutes cache before it up on the web.
Just add /index.html into the end of URL then it showed up and solved the case.
https://username.github.io/{repoName}/index.html
In my case, I had folders whose names started with _ (like _css and _js), which GH Pages ignores as per Jekyll processing rules. If you don't use Jekyll, the workaround is to place a file named .nojekyll in the root directory. Otherwise, you can remove the underscores from these folders
Four months ago I have contacted the support and they told me it was a problem on their side, they have temporarily fix it (for the current commit).
Today I tried again
I deleted the gh-pages branch on github
git push origin --delete gh-pages
I deleted the gh-pages branch on local
git branch -D gh-pages
I reinitialized git
git init
I recreated the branch on local
git branch gh-pages
I pushed the gh-pages branch to github
git push origin gh-pages
Works fine, I can finally update my files on the page.
If you haven't already, choose a Jekyll theme in your GitHub Pages settings tab. Apparently this is required even if you're not using Jekyll for your Pages site.
I had the same issue after forking a repo with a gh-pages branch. I was able to fix by simply pushing a new commit (just whitespace in index.html) to my fork's gh-pages branch.
In my case on 8/Aug/2017
if your user page is https://github.com/mgravell, you repo name must be
mgravell.github.io
under root, create a file index.html
under root, create a folder docs, create a file
CNAME under docs (note: NO extension like .txt, make sure your file
system shows extension)
gh-pages branch is optional, master branch is sufficient
more: check official docs here: https://help.github.com/articles/configuring-a-publishing-source-for-github-pages/
Just wait about ten minutes to one hour. If it still doesn't work, contact github. Usually it's the problem at their end.
But, if you're in a hurry, you can try to open by adding "?" question mark at the end of URL. It force query to search for the resource. Like this:
http://roine.github.com/p1?
In my case the browser had a previous cached version of my app. To avoid getting the cached version, access you url using a random query string:
https://{{your-username}}.github.io/{{your-repository}}?randomquery
My pages also kept 404'ing. Contacted support, and they pointed out that the url is case sensitive; solved my issue.
in my case i had to go to project settings and enable the github pages. The default is off
If you saw 404 even everything looks right, try switching https/http.
The original question has the url wrong, usually you can check repo settings and found the correct url for generated site.
However I have everything set up correctly, and the setting page said it's published, then I still saw 404.
Thanks for the comment of #Rohit Suthar (though that comment was to use https), I changed the url to http and it worked, then https worked too.
Add the following in the beginning of the index.html file
<!DOCTYPE html>
In my case in react was necessary to select the gh-pages branch:
I was facing the same issue, after trying most of the methods mentioned above I couldn't get the solution. In my case the issue of because of Github changing the name of master to main branch.
Go to Setting -> go to GitHub Pages section and change the branch to main:
to
Save it and select a theme, and the website is live.
If you are sure that your structure is correct, just push an empty commit or update the index.html file with some space, it works!
I had this exact problem with typedocs. The README.md worked but none of the actual docs generated by my doc strings displayed, I just got a 404 Github Pages screen.
To fix this, just place a empty file in your /docs directory (or wherever you generate your docs) & call it .nojekyll
To confirm, your file structure should now look like:
./docs/.nojekyll # plus all your generated docs
Push this up to your remote Github repo and your links etc should work now.
Also make sure you have selected in your Github settings:
Settings -> Github Pages -> Source -> master brach /docs folder
Depending on your doc framework, you probably have to recreate this file each time you update your docs, this is an example of using typedocs & creating the .nojekyll file each time in a package.json file:
# package.json
"scripts": {
"typedoc": "typedoc --out docs src && touch docs/.nojekyll"
},
The solution for me was to set right the homepage in package.json.
My project name is monsters-rolodex and I am publishing from console gh-pages -d build.
"homepage": "https://github.com/monsters-rolodex",
The project was built assuming it is hosted at /monsters-rolodex/.
Before it didn't work because in the homepage url I included my github username.
I got the site to work by deleting the "username.github.io" folder on my computer going through the steps again, including changing the index/html file.
My mistake (I think) is that i initially cloned "https://github.com/username/username.github.io.git" instead of https://github.com/username/username.github.io (no ".git")
In my case, all the suggestions above were correct. I had most pages working except few that were returning 404 even though the markdown files are there and they seemed correct. Here is what fixed it for me on these pages:
On one page, there were a few special characters that are not part of UTF-8 and I think that's why GitHub pages was not able to render them. Updating/removing these char and pushing a new commit fixed it.
On another page, I found that there were apostrophes ' surrounding the title, I removed them and the page content started showing fine
Another variant of this error:
I set up my first Github page after a tutorial but gave the file readme.md a - from my perspective - more meaningful name: welcome.md.
That was a fatal mistake:
We’ll use your README file as the site’s index if you don’t have an
index.md (or index.html), not dissimilar from when you browse to a
repository on GitHub.
from Publishing with GitHub Pages, now as easy as 1, 2, 3
I was then able to access my website page using the published at link specified under Repository / Settings / GitHub Pages followed by welcome.html or shorter welcome.
For some reason, the deployment of the GitHub pages stopped working today (2020-may-05). Previously I did not have any html, only md files. I tried to create an index.html and it published the page immediately. After removal of index.html, the publication keeps working.
I was following this YT video. So, when I ran the command in my terminal, it pushed the code to gh-pages branch already. Then I pushed to the master branch. It was giving me 404 error.
Then I swapped the branch to master and then again reverted to gh-pages and now the error is gone. It's pointing to the index.html even if it's not in the URL.
I bound my domain before this problem appeared. I committed and pushed the branch gh-pages and it solved my problem. New commits force jekyll to rebuild your pages.
In my case, the URL was quite long. So, I guess there is a limit. I put it to my custom subdomain and it worked.
On a private repo, when I first added and pushed my gh-pages branch to github, the settings for github pages automatically changed to indicate that the gh-pages branch would be published, but there no green or blue bar with the github.io url and no custom domain options.
It wasn't until I switched the source to master and quickly switched the source back to gh-pages that it actually updated with the green bar that contains the published url.
Your GitHub Pages is available at http://roine.github.io/p1 instead of http://roine.github.com/p1.
By the way, you can fix your project's description.
In my case it was that I had recently set up a custom domain for GitHub pages, but GitHub had forgotten my custom domain under (repo)<name>.github.io / Settings / Pages.
I added the custom domain again and then it immediately started working.
Go to settings section of your repository and choose master branch at the Source section and click save button after that refresh the page and you will be able to see the link of your page!.
I faced this problem (404) too and the root cause was my file was named INDEX.md. I was developing on Windows and my local Jekyll site worked (since Windows treats file names case insensitive by default). When pushed to Github, it didn't work. Once I renamed the INDEX.md to index.md, things worked well.
I use Eclipse with GIT plugin. I try to add a new GitHub repository, by copying the GitHub URL to the clipboard, then going to the "Git Repositories" view and right-clicking "Paste Repository Path or URL".
I get the following error:
https://github.com/rothariel/aimnegochat: https://github.com/rothariel/aimnegochat/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack not found
This is strange, because I already have some repositories in this view...
From Erel's answer to my question in the comment section, it turned out the mistake was the copy of the wrong url. So, instead of copying the url provided by github, Erel copied the url in the navigation bar. The solution was to change the repository address to https://github.com/rothariel/aimnegochat.git
For users of EGit/Eclipse who get the same error when clone from Visual Studio Online, be careful
the repo URL is not:
- https://[alt-name].visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/[your_repo]
the correct one is:
- https://[alt-name].visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/_git/[your_repo]
I had this message before
service=git-upload-pack not found
Seems the gitlab user & password I used for that git was wrong.
I changed it to the right one and it worked just fine.
