First of all, the Germans believed that the Allies were going to attack the port of Calay. So they focused on fortifying it and left all their other fortifications the way they were. Next, the Allies had a huge invasion force. Another reason was that Erwin Rommel, the German commander had left to see his family in Paris. Also Hitler had taken sleeping pills went to his quarters and said he did not wish to be disturbed. The Germans had plenty of forces to send but they could not do anything because they had no orders.
