Cannot publish with GitHub Pages

Open simonengelke opened this issue 11 years ago • 1 comments

Very cool project! I was not able to publish with GitHub Pages when I tried the "Publish" function. I got the note that "Repo does not exist" and when I clicked "Create" I got the error "Could not create repository.". However, when I check my repositories, I see the "new" repo I just "created" (contains only the README.md). I get the same errors when I try to create the just "created" repo. It might be an issue on my side, but just wanted to let you know. Keep it up!

Hello Simon,

Thank you for the report.

Unfortunately, we are still having glitches with the github backend -- which is not surprising, as Michael implemented it just 3 weeks ago. We are working on it trying to make it a better experience. Thankfully, the Github crew has offered their help and will improve the Github API.

What happened in your particular case - hard to say. Did you try to publish a custom document, i.e. not republish the 'About' document? You could also try from scratch again, after removing the repo on github.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Cheers, Oliver
