[community] ERROR WHEN SETTING UP A LOCAL VERSION OF THE TOR SUPPORT PORTAL

[gus]

Hi, 

You will find more online support joining us on #tor-www. I'm around,
every day @ 1300 UTC. And I'm happy to help you to compile the website
locally.

About your error: probably you're trying to compile a website that is
not "tpo" website. So the instructions are a slightly different: instead
of 'tpo', you should enter the directory that you git cloned. 

cheers,
Gus
