Add Template in TYPO3 via Typoscript leads to exception

Trying to learn TYPO3 I have setup a new (Version 8.7.6) installation. I have gone on fine so far but when I try to set a template for my first and only page with Typoscript then for this page I get the error message in the frontend "Uncaught TYPO3 Exception #1294587217: The page is not configured! [type=0][page]. This means that there is no TypoScript object of type PAGE with typeNum=0 configured".

Edit - solution:

Along with the answer of NextThursday I found out the two flaws in my typoscript. So basically it has nothing to do with any of the details named below.

  1. As stated in the answer page.typeNum = 0 has to be added below page = PAGE, which seems to be a "new" concept, at least is was not part of the solutions I consulted as my reference.

  2. The opening bracket "{" of my further page definition is not allowed to be in the following row but must be in the same row making the two rows page and { to a single row page {

Details:

Typoscript:

#Force cache refresh
config.cache_period = 2

# Default PAGE object:
/*
page = PAGE
page.10 = TEXT
page.10.value = HELLO WARLD!
*/

# My new PAGE object
page = PAGE 
page
{
  bodyTag = <body>

  10 = TEMPLATE
  10.template = FILE
  10.template.file = fileadmin/templates/blog/small.html
  10.workOnSubpart = BODYSTART
}

The template file small.html resides in folder DOCUMENT_ROOT\mytypo3\fileadmin\templates\blog:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<!-- ###BODYSTART### begin -->

<!-- ###BODYSTART### end -->
</body>
</html>

I would be happy for an explanaition what is wrong with the above code and how to correctly set a template for a page under the given ("Details") conditions.

As written in the comment, the correct answer is that the bracets must be on the same line. The correct code is

page = PAGE 
page {
  bodyTag = <body>

  10 = TEMPLATE
  10.template = FILE
  10.template.file = fileadmin/templates/blog/small.html
  10.workOnSubpart = BODYSTART
}

The typeNum is set to 0, see docs at https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/TyposcriptReference/Setup/Page/Index.html#typenum

This determines the typeId of the page. The &type= parameter in the URL determines, which page object will be rendered. The value defaults to 0 for the first found PAGE object, but it must be set and be unique as soon as you use more than one such object (watch this if you use frames on your page)!

As the error says, your TypoScript is missing the typeNum:

page.typeNum = 0
