PLEASE HELP!
Evey site that I try to deploy just acts as if the deployment was successful and gives me the error:
Looks like you’ve followed a broken link or entered a URL that doesn’t exist on this site.
Ihave tried removing and readding the repositories, I moved all of my HTML files to the main branch, no sub-folders, and I read the article that was supposed to help resolve, but it did not. I think I am doing something incorrect, but I need help to confirm.
@ken-b2404 It’s likely that the deployment is successful.
It’s just not necessarily deploying the files that you need it to deploy, or to precisely the right spot.
You can use the Deploy File Browser to check exactly what has been deployed:

If you’re working with a static site, you would expect there to be an /index.html file.
But if you’re accidentally deploying source files, or a nested structure, it may be missing.
It’s likely that you just need to ensure your Build Configuration (https://docs.netlify.com/configure-builds/overview/) is set properly depending on your own projects requirements.
If you have a public repository you can link to it, and either myself or someone else could guide you regarding the settings that will work.
Of course. Also, I renamed my html. Does that matter?
The repository is
@ken-b2404 Yes, it matters what the file is called.
Since you have it called taskmgmt.html
Then it means if you go to your-site-name.netlify.app it will be a 404 (Page Not Found)
But if you go to your-site-name.netlify.app/taskmgmt it will load.
If you want it to work for the root, the main file needs to be called index.html
With what you have there, you won’t require any Build Configuration.
There is no “build process” to run, it can just deploy the files as supplied.
You’ll just need to name them as necessary.
You’re awesome!! Thank you, sir!
