FAQPage Schema
How do I fix Bengal static site build errors?

To fix Bengal static site build errors, run `bengal build` and `bengal validate` to diagnose the issue, then address specific failures in template rendering, directive parsing, configuration, content parsing, or stale caching.

Why does my Bengal build fail during template rendering or directive parsing?

A Bengal build fails during template rendering or directive parsing due to syntax errors or invalid configurations. Running `bengal validate` pinpoints these validation errors to help you locate and correct the specific template or directive issue.

What is the best way to diagnose cryptic error messages from a Bengal build?

The best way to diagnose cryptic Bengal build errors is to execute `bengal validate` for a health check. This provides a structured debugging process to identify root causes across configuration, content, and caching.

How do I resolve inconsistent Bengal builds caused by stale cache?

To resolve inconsistent Bengal builds caused by stale cache, you need to clear the cached files. This ensures that subsequent `bengal build` commands generate fresh static site outputs without retrieving outdated template or content data.

Can I use `bengal validate` to check content parsing issues before building?

Yes, you can use `bengal validate` to check for content parsing issues before building. It performs a health check that identifies configuration problems and content errors, allowing you to fix them prior to running the full `bengal build`.
