bookdown::publish_book - error when publishing Rmarkdown in Rstudio

When I try to publish a book to bookdown by running the command:

bookdown::publish_book(render = "none", account="my_account", server="bookdown.org")

I get the following error:

Error in rsconnect::deploySite(siteDir = getwd(), siteName = name, account = account, : 
index file with site entry not found in C:\Users\...\...

I have managed to connect to bookdown with the command rsconnect::connectUser(server = 'bookdown.org').

and when I run rsconnect::accounts I get a positive response:

    name       server
1 my_user bookdown.org

What could be causing this error? Thanks

in the end, I just used rsconnect instead:

library(rmarkdown)
library(rsconnect)

connectUser(account = "my_user", server = "bookdown.org", quiet = TRUE)

# reder app
render("script.Rmd")
deployApp(appFiles = "script.html")
