While hugo server successfully loads my wowchemy-based website in a local webserver of my browser, when I execute hugo (the get the public folder), I get the errors below. (Doing hugo version partially yields hugo v0.118.2-da7983ac4b94d97d776d7c2405040de97e95c03d+extended windows/amd64.)

Does one know what is wrong here?

Quite strange you can view your site locally with hugo server but the the hugo command throws errors. I recommend following up in Discord, sharing your repo if possible so we can reproduce your issues.
