830 PointsI followed the tutorial exactly and my "Resume" website isn't showing up when I type in /resume.html it says error 404
I can't figure out why my resume doesn't show up in the tutorial when I hit preview on the workspace and then type /resume.html

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 3,769 PointsRick Gleitz, I had the same problem and you are correct, I had the file name capitalised. Thanks for the fix. Could you also explain why that doesnt work? I thought if the address bar in a browser isn't cap sensitive, this wouldn't be a problem.

944 PointsI'm having the same problem. I typed it exactly as the teacher, no caps. I command saved it, and in css command refreshed, and still there is an error.

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 681 PointsI was also experiencing the same issue. I was able to fix it by placing the resume.html file outside of the images folder.

1,069 PointsYou probably solved this already, but I was having the same issue! I was going crazy trying to find a solution and none worked. I found out why it wasn't showing up, reason being was because I did NOT save it. Make sure to save it.

47,840 PointsHi, Lukas,
I think that only applies to the actual website address, anything after a / is case sensitive (just try it and see). It definitely needs to be right in the HTML. Hope this helps!

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 456 PointsYes, check when you created the original resume file if it is capitalized. I just realized it was capitalized.

47,840 PointsHi ُُEhsan, Could you post your code so I can see it? Check to make sure that they match each other EXACTLY.

3,609 PointsHi Rick, Thank you for your reply. It resolved now, simply I didn't press (save all ) before preview.

47,840 PointsGood on you for figuring it out. That's a common problem, too.

47,840 PointsHi, You'd need to post your code to get it debugged properly. The only thing I can think of in the meanwhile is that maybe you capitalized the actual file resume.html, or that it's maybe in a subfolder under index.html.
If it's not either one of those, post your code and I'll be happy to look at it.
