  • Build problems? below is my build log

I can not seem to get past the above build error. The main error message is: Error: Publish directory is configured incorrectly. Please set it to “dist/giboney-electric/browser”, however my dist folder is structured as dist/giboney-electric in my repo. There is no ‘browser’ folder. Can someone assist me with this?

Once I removed the default “Angular” selection that auto populates in the deployment settings my build succeeded without issue. The Angular auto populate must require a sub folder called browser within the dist folder that my repo did not have.

Why does the dist/project-name/browser route automatically become required if the system detects an angular repo?

That’s currently a bug and there are open PRs to fix it.
