LESS issue on static content deploy. How to resolve it?
The below error when running a
bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy command implies that the child theme is not utilizing the Magento LESS to CSS compilation: Compilation from source: /srv/public_html/vendor/amasty/module-name/view/base/web/css/source/mkcss/ammodule.less Unable to get content for 'frontend/Vendor/theme/en_US/../../../lib/css/source/lib/_lib.less'
It can be resolved by following the steps below.
Step 1. In the terminal, open the root Magento directory.
Step 2. Navigate to the directory of the affected module (
vendor/amasty/module-name or app/code/Amasty/ModuleName ) and open the registration.php file. It will contain the module name in the needed format; please copy it for further use.Step 3. From the module directory, go to the following path:
mview/frontend/web/css/source/mkcss and find a file of a similar format: ammodule.less (e.g. ambrand.less); save its name and copy its content for further use.Step 4. Navigate to the directory of the theme; it can be found at
/app/design/vendor/theme (e.g. app/design/SmartWave/Porto ).Step 5. There, using the previously copied module and .less file names, create an
Amasty_ModuleName/web/css/source/mkcss/ammodule.less file.Step 6. After that, copy the content of the
ammodule.less file from the module folder to the newly created file, and add two "steps" (../../) to the path of _lib.less and _responsive.lessThe file contents should look as follows (the underlined elements in bold are the added ones):
// Generating css file. Path from vendor/magento/theme-frontend-blank @import (reference) '../../../../../lib::css/source/lib/_lib.less'; // Library files @import (reference) '../../../../../lib::css/source/lib/_responsive.less'; // Global responsive @import '../_module.less';
After completing the steps, the deploy command should run successfully.
