I’m getting these errors when I try to go to http://localhost:3000/admin/index.html to view netlify CMS locally:
**Config Errors:**
config must have required property 'media_folder'
config must have required property 'media_library'
config must match a schema in anyOf
Check your config.yml file.
I’m super confused because I have both of those properties, and most of the other answers for this issue were to check indentation, which I think should be all right. I used a YAML validator too. This is my config.yml file:
backend:
name: git-gateway
branch: main # Branch to update (optional; defaults to master)
media_folder: "public"
media_library:
name: uploads
publish_mode: editorial_workflow
collections:
- name: "blog" # Used in routes, e.g., /admin/collections/blog
label: "Blog" # Used in the UI
folder: "blogPosts" # The path to the folder where the raw posts are stored
create: true # Allow users to create new documents in this collection
slug: "{{slug}}" # Filename template, e.g., YYYY-MM-DD-title.md
fields: # The fields for each document, usually in front matter
- {label: "Page Title", name: "page_title", widget: "string"}
- {label: "Meta Description", name: "meta_description", widget: "text"}
- {label: "Article Title", name: "title", widget: "string"}
- {label: "Publish Date", name: "date", widget: "datetime"}
- {label: "Featured Image", name: "thumbnail", widget: "image"}
- {label: "Body", name: "body", widget: "markdown"}

hey, thanks for the reply. It’s private unfortunately, but here’s how it looks
My admin folder is under the public directory (I’m using NextJS) and contains index.html and config.yml
This is my index.html file
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<title>Content Manager</title>
<script src="https://identity.netlify.com/v1/netlify-identity-widget.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Include the script that builds the page and powers Netlify CMS -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/netlify-cms@^2.0.0/dist/netlify-cms.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
and this is my package.json
