Can you use --debug flag and verify the output? That way you should see a bit more details about what it does during the publishing process.

Hi @estruyf ,
Thank you ! I believe its not publishing the content when my folder exist after 3rd level i.e. C:\Folder1\Folder2\Repo in my local drive. its working fine if my repo exists till 3rd level folder structure i.e. C:\Folder1\Repo.
Same issue is occurring If I'm creating a new project using doctor init after 3rd level folder in my local drive. Is it supposed to work like that only ?

That should not be a problem, but to be sure, what does your log output say? Please verify by: doctor publish --debug > output.log.

Hi @estruyf .. I've tried it out today and it works. Not sure what was the issue though !

However I've another query related to certificate based authentication. We are planning to create pages on one of the sites where we don't have tenant level access and the team which managed it will definitely not give Sites.FullControl.All application permission to our app. Password method is also failing and device code will not work as we are publishing pages using build pipeline.
So for certificate authentication , I was trying with Microsoft Graph Site Collection level permission (Sites.Selected) which has been recently introduced . Its authenticating but failing while processing .md files.

Could you please suggest if we have any alternative for it.

I had this issue too.
When copying the folder content to a new directory it worked again.
It looked like the doctor publish command was also trying to do things with stuff from my other test folders when --debug was on...
