Troubleshooting

”Deployment failed: Build error”

Verify your build works locally:
Terminal window
```
npm run build
```
Check the build output directory exists:
- Next.js: .next/ or out/
- React: dist/ or build/
- Vue: dist/

”Environment variables not found”

Credentials are auto-provided. If you see this error, run varitykit doctor to check your setup.

”Deployment timed out”

Check your internet connection:

varitykit doctor

If issues persist, try deploying with verbose output:

varitykit app deploy --verbose
