Same issue.
I tried following the documentation but I couldn’t find this step:
Step 1: Go to Dashboard >> Pages >> Add New, enter page name and select template as Home Page Template from Page Attribute as shown in below image
I’m running into the same problem here as well. Looking in the templates/ directory, there’s no .php file for a home page template. I’m not sure if that’s the reason ro not.
Anyone had any luck solving this? I’d like to get this up and running ASAP but I’m not able to find the “Home Page” template, which is throwing everything off.
