Question

In continue with Magento 2: How to override Luma Theme Home Page

I'm getting error

Cannot read contents from file "D:/wamp/www/magento2/" Warning!file_get_contents(D:/wamp/www/magento2/): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

As i'm using Magento 2 CE on WAMP Windows 10, it shouldn't be file permission issue.

Maybe you have missing web and etc folder in your theme folder.

please add below code in your theme,

you need to copy entire web folder from /vendor/magento/theme-frontend-luma to app/design/frontend/Vendor/Theme/web folder

Also need to copy etc folder from default luma theme to your Vendor/Theme folder and check again

web folder is neccessary to add inside theme.

Now run command php bin/magento setup:upgrade

run deployment command, php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

Remove var folder and clear browser cache.

Set Your custom theme from

Content -> Design -> Configuration

Surely it shouldn't be necessary to copy the Luma theme folder? Should be sufficient to inherit from Luma theme. I can't quote you chapter and verse at the moment, but I though theme inheritance was one of the advertised features. – gwideman Nov 03 '16 at 16:04
where is stored etc folder and where need to place – zus Mar 20 '18 at 10:56
