Comment

Every webpage within the "cgd" directory of my live Codeberg Pages website returns a 404 error when accessed. This happens despite the fact that those pages exist within my git repository & are viewable locally. Strangely, the 404 page returned is a generic one; it is not the custom 404 page I wrote for my site.

Here are the affected pages that return 404:

https://lukelawlor.codeberg.page/cgd
https://lukelawlor.codeberg.page/cgd/topics.html
https://lukelawlor.codeberg.page/cgd/notes.html
https://lukelawlor.codeberg.page/cgd/exercises/index.html

Meanwhile you can view these pages' HTML by looking at the repo like so:

https://codeberg.org/lukelawlor/pages/src/branch/main/cgd/index.html

Also notice how the affected pages don't return the same 404 page as my custom 404 page which shows when there really is no page to be found:

https://lukelawlor.codeberg.page/nothing

So far I have tried updating the code of the affected pages, but that didn't fix anything.

Is this due to the directory being named "cgd"? I don't see how that could cause the problem because these pages used to be perfectly accessible with that name in the past.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Ah the problem is that these files are in the main branch, the default branch is pages. So if you rename the branch to pages it will work perfectly. Otherwise you need access it via https://lukelawlor.codeberg.page/@main/cgd/
