Hey friends, I’m really struggling to deploy my site from GitHub. I think the issue is the poverty of my understanding of some aspects of Git. I’ve read through the documentation and done a few Google searches; I keep finding people creating .toml files in their directories, but I am just at a loss after trying a few of those suggestions. My build command has failed, even after specifying the command in a .toml file in the root directory. Someone mentioned I shouldn’t use a build command since it’s a static site, but when I do that, I also get similar errors. What is my problem here? Netlify site name: 1.

could you post a screenshot of your build settings as well as your package.json please? also, [This Support Guide](https://answers.netlify.com/t/common-issue-frequently-encountered-problems-during-builds/213) contains a ton of useful debugging tips that can likely help you solve your problem 🙂 ---

Aha, thanks for that! You cannot call your build command “build”. How do you build your site locally? If you literally have a script in the file `build` - you’ll need to call it something else to use it here. If you don’t need a build command, just leave that field empty and we’ll copy the files instead of running anyting.
