Hello, I got this error after upgrade (Hugo 0.62) to Hugo 72.

> hugo version
Hugo Static Site Generator v0.72.0-8A7EF3CF linux/amd64 BuildDate: 2020-05-31T12:07:45Z

I can’t run the server and build site:

Here my site: https://github.com/ardianta/blog

But, when I tested with another site… It’s worked.

You have a symbolic link inside /static/img that looks like a loop.

Hi @bep thank you for the response.

Sorry, I forget to check the symbolic link inside /static/img. Now it worked after I delete it. :smiley:
