Comment

Hello,
I've been recently trying to migrate my "little" blog (it's rather large despite the rather small amount of content) from Github to Codeberg Pages. I think I've got everything setup, but I have something misconfigured, but don't know where. I receive following when loading up https://joelvonrotz.ch

My blog sits at https://codeberg.org/joelvonrotz/pages and has following .domain file under /static/

joelvonrotz.ch
joelvonrotz.codeberg.page
pages.pages.joelvonrotz.codeberg.page

My website uses Zola as a static site generator in combination with the woodpecker CI. The CI builds the page and pushes the result onto the pages branch. The repository uses main as the default branch.

My DNS configuration is as following for my page:

I'm not sure where I'm hitting my head and would be happy, if you could help me out. Thank you :)

The problem is that in the build pages branch the domain still resides in the static/ folder, it should instead be in the root of the repo/branch that serves the page.

If you adjust your woodpecker file to move it there instead of putting it into the folder it should work I think :)

Hi, the server had an old DNS entry cached for the TXT record. Your website is accessible again.

In the pages branch, you can see the page is on root level :)

But the website works now, had to wait for the DNS entries to update (as Gusted mentioned). Was very tired yesterday to figure this out 😅

Thank you! I wasn't sure if I configured it correctly, but it was the case 😅 Gotta be a Bit more patient next time

No worries. Shit happens and I hope the sleep was at least good! Works now, although gotta read more into how pages are served :)
