Can't write

Statac couldn’t write a file of the built site. The message names the file and gives the system’s reason, such as a full disk, a folder with the same name, or no permission to write there.

statac import says the same of a new site’s folder inside the site being imported, or holding it, since writing one would change the other.

What you’ll see

error  Can't write `out/index.html`: a folder already has that name

In the terminal the message also names the file and line where there is one, and marks the exact text.

Why Statac stops

A site with a file missing isn’t the site you wrote, so the build stops rather than leave it half written.

How to fix it

Deal with the reason the message gives: free some space, move the folder that is in the way, or give yourself permission to write to the output folder. Then build again.

Example

Something made a folder called index.html inside out/. Remove it and build again.

Its name

Name	cant-write
In the terminal	statac explain cant-write
To stop showing it	It stops the build, so it can't be quietened.
