Jekyll does not generate messages

Question

I use bloggy gem to host jekyll's blog in my current rails application. Basically, you have a normal jekyll build, but then you put your files in the config / jekyll directory and generate the files in the public / blog directory.

However, when I run jekyll build , none of my messages are generated.

Here is the configuration file:

 markdown: rdiscount permalink: /:title.html destination: ../../public/blog exclude: - Rakefile - Gemfile - .gitignore 

Here is my directory structure in config / jekyll

 ./_config.yml ./_layouts ./_layouts/default.html ./_layouts/page.html ./_layouts/post.html ./_posts ./_posts/2013-06-07-dear-nsa.md ./_posts/2013-06-07-wut.markdown ./atom.xml ./css ./css/screen.css ./css/syntax.css ./index.html 

And here is the generated public / blog directory structure

 ./atom.xml ./css ./css/screen.css ./css/syntax.css ./index.html 

The key I came up with: if I specify the source as _posts, it will generate html versions of my posts in the public / blog ... but it will not include the css or index page.
