^{Originally posted by **ooker777** January 13, 2024} When deploying I get this error: ``` Deploying... (100.0%) Error: The deployment failed: Relative import path "$fresh/server.ts" not prefixed with / or ./ or ../ ``` [A person who had the same error on their machine](https://stackoverflow.com/a/74748824/3416774) solves this by adding this to the import map: ``` "deno.importMap": "./import_map.json" ``` This doesn't work on my case. In my understanding this shouldn't be an issue at all. Do you know why is that? # Background My fresh project is under some sub-folder from the root.

It's because I change the source directory. If the path contains a space or a non-ASCII character then it yields this error:

Error: The deployment failed: Relative import path "$fresh/server.ts" not prefixed with / or ./ or ../

I can't figure out how to escape those characters.

I'm getting the same issue with a non-Fresh project where the file importing with the import map is in the base directory alongside the deno.json.

error: The deployment failed: Relative import path "$std/dotenv/mod.ts" not prefixed with / or ./ or ../

./deno.json

"imports": {
    "$std/": "https://deno.land/std@0.204.0/"
  },

./env.ts

import { load } from "$std/dotenv/mod.ts";

This was all working previously (last deploy was ~1 month ago).
