Trouble with the theme in quick start

Hello. I am struggling with the quick start guide. I am running Manjaro OS and installed Hugo through Yaourt.

I progressed through the quick start tutorial and everything seemed fine until I started the server with hugo server -D, getting the following console output:

Going to http://localhost:1313/ gives a new WARN:

I’m not sure how to proceed as it’s looking for missing files in the prepared tutorial. Does this look familiar to anyone?

Many thanks for your time.

EDIT
I have since repeated the quick start on windows 10 and gotten the same error.

Looks like the theme isn’t configured properly. What’s your config.toml look like?

The config.toml in /quickstart ? It reads:

baseURL = “http://example.org/
languageCode = “en-us”
title = “My New Hugo Site”

You’re missing the theme line. So currently your Hugo site isn’t using a theme. Add this line:

theme = "ananke"

Ok that works. Thanks for your help. I think I overlooked that step as it appeared to be in a comment on a code fragment.
