I have a simple website and tried to add a Jekyll blog in it in a new folder blog thus I have run jekyll new blog in the folder /path. However when I'm running the command jekyll build in /path I have these errors:

$ jekyll build
Configuration file: none
Source: /path
Destination: /path/_site
Generating... 
Build Warning: Layout 'post' requested in blog/_posts/2015-06-14-welcome-to-jekyll.markdown does not exist.
Build Warning: Layout 'default' requested in blog/index.html does not exist.
Conversion error: Jekyll::Converters::Scss encountered an error converting 'blog/css/main.scss'.
Conversion error: File to import not found or unreadable: /blog/_sass/base.scss. Load paths: on line 47

I solved the first problem (Configuration file: none) by moving _config.ymlin the parent folder, however I still have problems when requesting layout using 

---
layout: default
---

The imports in main.scssare also not working (last error).

If I'm doing the same command jekyll build in /path/blogafter moving again _config.yml, I have no errors. Does someone know how to be able to do a jekyll buildin the parent folder with the configuration I have? Do I have to entirely change the architecture of my website to include a Jekyll blog in it?

You config.yml is in /path with 

source: /_jekyll
destination: /blog
baseurl: /blog

Your jekyll sources are in /path/_jekyll.

And you generated files will be in /path/blog.

Ready to deploy !

    Works with source `_jekyll` and destination `blog` without slashes, thanks for your help! – Armand Grillet Jun 14 '15 at 11:26
  • This ended up working, but now my _sass folder is broken. I get a conversion error `Jekyll::Converters::Scss encountered an error while converting 'style.scss': Error: File to import not found or unreadable: reset. on line 5:1 of style.scss >> @import "reset"; ^ ` this was after I added `blog\_sass` to the `sass_dir` Any advice? – Andre Fu May 02 '20 at 03:11
