PLEASE help us help you by writing a good post!

  • we need to know your netlify site name. Example: gifted-antelope-58b104.netlify.app
  • DNS issues? Tell us the custom domain, tell us the error message! We can’t help if we don’t know your domain.
  • Build problems? Link or paste the FULL build log & build settings screenshot

The better the post - the faster the answer.

As you see, I set two directories, so there might be something wrong on build setting…

@clearwater Welcome to the Netlify community.

You need to have an index.html file at the top level of your website files. If you download your deployed files and you do not see an index.html file at the top level, that’s why you are seeing the Page Not Found message.

Thank you for your answer, gregraven !

As you said, there is no ‘index.html’ at the top level, the file is in the directory.
In this project structure, can I troubleshoot the “page not found” error using build setting?

@clearwater I recommend you search this forum for similar posts, as there have been a lot of them. You might also check this page:

Sorry , I already read the posts and tried what they have said, but I cannot adapt it to my problem
Could you please explain more detail?

also, I have to npm start(build) twice separately

6

@clearwater No, because I don’t use those build systems, but perhaps someone else with knowledge about React apps can jump in here?

Maybe you could share with us what you have tried already? Can you build this on your local system?

@clearwater If you can give us access to the repo, it would be much easier. I don’t see why you have to run npm build twice.

My access is https://elated-saha-bee70d.netlify.app/My project has two directories and they occupy different ports !

  • api : it runs as json-server
  • movie-selector : client side

I really appreciate your answer. hrishkesh

you mean the access to my repository?

here is my app deployed on netlify(Page Not Found)

I tried setting a configure file

The configuration file is wrong. It should be command = "CI= npm run build".

I modified the setting file as you wrote.
Here is log.
It was published, not failed. However the page is still not found.

Then you’re not generating any index.html in your build. Kindly share the repo.

It is my repository. you mean this?

Here is another repository, not for now
I deployed successfully that time.

there is publish directory and there is an index.html
btw i dont know how to fix …

15

I just tried this repo and it seems to work. Just add publish = "build" to your netlify.toml right below the command line. This is usually configured in the UI, but, the TOML would work too.
