Jekyll no access permission to `/'

13 Mar 2013

When I start jekyll with:

jekyll --server

And I access the page, it gives me:

FelixMBPR:sunfmin.github.com sunfmin$ jekyll --server

After searching google, and more frustration, I found: http://sebdah.github.com/blog/2012/10/02/debugging-jekyll/, Which explains I should do this, It gives error explainations, Which is best. secretly hidding error information is the worst thing you can do.

In my case, It is that you can not put : and [] in your blog title.
