I am trying to install Mahara directly from Github but kept getting the following error -

`Mahara: Site unavailable

CSS files are not present in your htdocs/theme/raw/style directory. If you are running Mahara from a git checkout, run "make css" to build the CSS files. If you are running Mahara from a ZIP download, try downloading and unzipping again.`
 
I checked the listed sub-directory under this directory and found that instead of seeing style folder it is SASS folder that is there.
I switched to the SASS folder and executed make and got the error below
 
`make: *** No rule to make target 'css'.  Stop.`
 
Please, help. I am presently installing on the live server.

Hi Kehinde,

To use the 'make css' command you need to be in the parent directory of 'htdocs', this is the directory where the 'Makefile' file is

Cheers
