Find below the failed log. Also attached is a screenshot
10:25:45 AM: Failing build: Failed to parse configuration
10:25:45 AM: Failed during stage ‘Reading and parsing configuration files’:
When resolving config:

hi there, welcome.
my hunch at the moment is that something is wrong with your package.json file.
Could you share the contents here please or link us to it so we can see it?
Thank you Perry. Glad to be here.
Would you want me to share my GitHub repository link for this or just portion of that link?
It is public anyway.

can you pop a screenshot of our build settings (from the netlify UI) for us? i think that this line is gonna help us sleuth:

maybe you have a wonky directory or something similar in the settings in the UI.
i actually meant this URL (replace the sitename)
https://app.netlify.com/sites/[YOUR SITE NAME]/settings/deploys
edited as i had the wrong link myself!
ah. here’s the culprit as expected. that long number sequence is not the appropriate directory.
i think that your base directory can be “not set” and your publish directory - hmm, lets try public/. i’m not a super expert on what all the different frameworks require but this is definitely the problem.
This is what returns Perry when i input “not set” in the base directory. It automatically sets the publish directory as “not set” / dist/ . See below
oh, i meant to just leave it blank! can you try that? I should have been more specific in my language.
will try that now and let you know. Thanks a lot
You were almost right. Went far but still encountered a Configuration error
Error message: Deploy did not succeed: Deploy directory ‘dist’ does not exist
Hey @cihanmedia
From the webpack.config.js in the repository
path: path.resolve(__dirname, "./build"),
Which means it is building to build, not dist
thank you coel! @cihanmedia - we were so close. change the directory to build, not dist, and it should work!
Site was successfully deployed but with a little snag. It dispolayed the 404 error page.
This is something internal to your app routing. If it was a 404 served by Netlify, it would look like this
Do you have a redirect for an SPA configured?
As it appears you have now made the repository private, it makes it hard to offer any code-specific assistance.
Meanungful morning @coelmay, started over again with hope to fix it. Got to the same point of “404 Invalid URL!”
However, I have made the repository public as advised. Would appreciate your further help. Thanks so much - FlikonTV/ctvvirtualtour (github.com)
Looking at the README @cihanmedia it says
The app now should be running at https://localhost:3000/. (Please ignore the 404 message, you need to join the right URL of the room. Next sections describe how to create a room and form the correct URL)
It would appear there is no “homepage” as it were. It goes on to says
Visit the URL : https://localhost:3000/meeting/<room_id>/< role > to join the room
So I typed in a random room number and received:
If you would like to have something other than a 404 message shown on the “homepage” (or site root) it seems you will need to add that functionality yourself (without affecting the current functionality of the site.)
