I’m getting the following error (twice) when my Hugo site tries to build:
11:18:20 PM: Error checking out submodules: Submodule 'themes/PaperMod' (https://github.com/adityatelange/hugo-PaperMod) registered for path 'themes/PaperMod'
Cloning into '/opt/build/repo/themes/PaperMod'...
fatal: remote error: upload-pack: not our ref cbf128972cbc3ac061e48b09de35da08835b3add
Fetched in submodule path 'themes/PaperMod', but it did not contain cbf128972cbc3ac061e48b09de35da08835b3add. Direct fetching of that commit failed.
any idea what I might be doing wrong?
Welcome to the Forums @owenvachell
Are you able to link to your deploy log (if public) or post full log (if private)?
Is your repo public so others can test it?
Thanks for the quick reply. This is my repo:
https://github.com/owenvachell/My-Personal-Blog
Not 100% if my Netlify site is public. It’s here if you can access it:
This is the full print out from my log:

The link to PaperMod in your themes directory returns a 404 therefore the build bot can’t build so throws an error.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. That’s fixed now.
Hi Owen, I am running into the same issue with Hugo, same theme, how did you fix it?
Hi, blaiseAI. I am having this same problem. Did you have any luck?
solution
You could try rebuild with cache cleared.
Just click retry -> Clear cache and deploy site
