I am using Travis to deploy on Github pages. I am also using jekyll-archives in my project. My setup works very well locally but no archive pages are generated on github pages. I have also used jekyll-paginate-v2 which is also not whitelisted on github pages and it works perfectly with Travis deployment. I cannot figure out jekyll-archives issue.

As it turns out, jekyll-archives was working correctly but creating slugified links per its default settings. On the other hand, I kept category links as it is in the anchor tag in html files. So I had to place slugify filter in the anchor tag.
Before
<a href="{{ site.baseurl }}/category/{{ cat }}">{{ cat | capitalize }}</a>
After
<a href="{{ site.baseurl }}/category/{{ cat | slugify }}">{{ cat | capitalize }}</a>
