Deployment does no create /js folder with main.js

Question

During the process of updating my Magento2 website, the console commands fail to create my main.js file, and shows me this error static/frontend/website/default/pt_PT/js/main.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)

I've tried to flush the cachem, re-index, and update

>Clean cache
 php bin/magento cache:clean
>Upgrade
 php bin/magento setup:upgrade
>Deploy
 php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
 php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy pt_PT -f
>Reindex
 php bin/magento indexer:reindex
>Compile
 php bin/magento setup:di:compile

But it did nothing basically, because i always end up getting the 404 cannot find main.js file. This might be causing some other problems in my magento website.

I've already checked this question and this question

The main.js is located on my app folder, so i'm guessing my theme. i'm fairly new to magento sorry! — Pedro Ferreira, Jun 18 '20 at 16:46
Let me know full path to the js file, please - probably, the issue in the wrong path. — Evgeny Levinsky, Jun 18 '20 at 16:48
the full relative path is app/design/frontend/website/default/Magento_Theme/web/js/main.js — Pedro Ferreira, Jun 18 '20 at 16:50
Try to place the file in app/design/frontend/website/default/web/js/main.js (without Magento_Theme folder) and after regenerating static files it should be available by pub/static/frontend/website/default/pt_PT/js/main.js — Evgeny Levinsky, Jun 18 '20 at 16:57
I think the folder you told me to it move to does not exists, is it supossed to me to create it ? — Pedro Ferreira, Jun 19 '20 at 08:56

First, check if var/ and pub/ folders have proper permissions, then run below commands in same order:

rm -rf generated
php bin/magento indexer:reindex
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
php bin/magento cache:clean
