Is build-site.py brocken, or am I missing something? I do:      cd docsite      ./build-site.py Then the modules.html does not include any of the module.... Thanks. ---

Weird... I get this error for every module:      rst/modules/\_list.rst:2: (SEVERE/4) Problems with "include" directive path:      IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'rst/modules/modules/add\_host.rst'. Notice the directory "modules" is repeated twice. I just added a soft link in modules to itself, it gets me by to be able to look at the html output, which is all I want for now. But still, I wonder what I'm doing wrong. ---

try source ./hacking/env-setup before you build? ---

I had a lot of left over files from previous make runs, I completely clean my repo until I got a clean "git pull upstream", and now it builds the docs correctly. ---

Is there an undocumented dependence on Sphinx for “make docs” and “make deb”? I’m on Ubuntu 12.04 and would get this error for both make commands: [lines removed] make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ops/src/ansible/docsite' [lines removed] processing module source ---> ../library/yum processing module source ---> ../library/zfs ./build-site.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "./build-site.py", line 24, in from sphinx.application import Sphinx ImportError: No module named sphinx.application make[1]: *** [docs] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ops/src/ansible/docsite’ make: \*\*\* [webdocs] Error 2 After installing the Ubuntu package “python-sphinx” (and its dependencies) Sphinx was invoked and the builds were successful. Thanks, -Greg ---

Yes, if someone wants, we can add this to the getting started docs. Just send a pull request for the files in docsite/rst/\*.rst !
