Page displays true after running command: 'webby'

Question

I'm running though the webby tutorial and I get to the part where you run the webby command for the first time to generate the website in the /output directory.

I do that, and next I'm told to open output/index.html. I do so, and the only thing that displays is:

true

I view the source...and all that is displayed is

true

This isn't a Budweiser commercial from years past! This is webby!

I wrote down the commands I used to install webby here, but it still doesn't seem to work.

According to the webby -v command... I was doing it correctly. What did I do wrong?

Answer 1

Just to confirm - did you open output/index.html in a browser? And the "true" that you describe is what you see in your browser...?

Before you ran the webby command, did you edit any of the files, especially content/index.txt? Can you paste the contents of content/index.txt here...?

Did you install RedCloth as well as Webby or did it install automatically as a dependency? If you run the following command, you can see whether RedCloth is installed.

gem list RedCloth
