I have installed this jekyll theme. But faced with one issue.

If I do:

bundle exec jekyll serve

All work fine (_site folder contains necessary files and server is running), but if I use the following command:

jekyll build -d /var/www/budka/data/www/blog

I get the error:

Dependency Error: Yikes! It looks like you don’t have jekyll-paginate
or one of its dependencies installed. In order to use Jekyll as
currently configured, you’ll need to install this gem. The full error
message from Ruby is: ‘cannot load such file — jekyll-paginate’ If

jekyll 3.1.1 | Error: jekyll-paginate

I tried to solve the issue, but unsuccessfully.
Now Gemfile file contains:

source 'http://rubygems.org'
gem 'github-pages'
gem 'html-proofer'
gem "jekyll"
gem 'jekyll-paginate'
gem "pygments.rb"

jekyll-paginate (1.1.0) gem is installed, because I see it in gem list commnad:

Could you please advise how to solve the issue?

  1. Found a similar issue on Jekyll repository, and this comment helped me solve it.

    First run gem uninstall --all, then run gem install github-pages.

    P.S. You also don’t need jekyll-paginate explicitly in your Gemfile as it’s already included in github-pages gem.

  2. A similar problem has happened to me! I found you have two versions of jekyll,jekyll (3.1.1, 3.0.3),which results in this phenomenon。
    So uninstall one :
    First run gem uninstall jekyll ,

     gem uninstall jekyll
       Select gem to uninstall:
         1. jekyll-3.0.3
         2. jekyll-3.1.2
         3. All versions
        > 2
        Successfully uninstalled jekyll-3.1.2
    

    then run Jekyll serve.

    Wish to help you!

  3. I have found the solution to the same error don’t have jekyll-paginate or one of its dependencies following this recomendation:

    Edit the Gemfile and add:

    source "https://rubygems.org"
    
    gem "jekyll"
    gem "jekyll-paginate"
    

    In my case, I have to add only to my Gemfile the

    gem "jekyll"
    

    And after I have edited the file, I ran in the terminal the commands:

    $ bundle install
    $ bundle exec jekyll serve
    

    And this problem was solved…

  5. I had the same question. I get the error:

    Dependency Error: Yikes! It looks like you don’t have jekyll-paginate or one of its dependencies installed. In order to use Jekyll as currently configured, you’ll need to install this gem. The full error message from Ruby is: ‘cannot load such file — jekyll-paginate’ If you run into trouble, you can find helpful resources at https://jekyllrb.com/help/!

    And I solved it by Edit the Gemfile! Add gem "jekyll-paginate", "~> 1.1.0" and it works!

  6. What is the Problem

    I had the same problem in jekyll 3.8.5 version and short error message is like below

    jekyll 3.8.5 | Error: jekyll-paginate

    Investigate the Problem

    Then I read my project Gemfile.

    If you want to use GitHub Pages, remove the “gem “jekyll”” above and
    uncomment the line below. To upgrade, run bundle update github-pages.

    Solution

    So I did what it suggested, comment the # gem "jekyll", "~> 3.8.5" and uncommented below line

    gem "github-pages", group: :jekyll_plugins

    then run bundle update github-pages and bundle exec jekyll serve.

    Because github-pages have all necessary gem files, I solved my problem.

  7. I recently ran into this problem.

    Here is a full list of steps for running Jekyll site (github pages) on MacOS

    Install bundler and jekyll

    Copied from https://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation/macos/

    1. Install Xcode
    2. Install Homebrew
    
    Add RUBY to your PATH as 
       echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
    
    3. Install Jekyll
    
    Add gems to your PATH as
       echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.gem/ruby/2.6.0/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
    
    

    Running Jekyll site

    Restart your terminal and go to your project’s root directory.

    bundle exec jekyll serve
    

    If above command run into following error, then update the gemfile

     Dependency Error: Yikes! It looks like you don't have jekyll-paginate or one of its dependencies installed. In order to use Jekyll as currently configured, you'll need to install this gem. If you've run Jekyll with `bundle exec`, ensure that you have included the jekyll-paginate gem in your Gemfile as well. The full error message from Ruby is: 'cannot load such file -- jekyll-paginate' If you run into trouble, you can find helpful resources at https://jekyllrb.com/help/! 
    

    Fix

    Gemfile is in your project’s root directory. Add new gems to it as

    source "https://rubygems.org"
    
    gem "jekyll", "~> 4.0"
    gem "jekyll-paginate", "~> 1.1.0"
    gem "jekyll-sitemap"
    gem "jekyll-gist"
    gem "jekyll-feed"
    gem "jemoji"
    

    Then

    bundle install
    bundle exec jekyll serve
    

    Your site should be up at http://127.0.0.1:4000/
