Hi @barseghyanartur! It seems this problem is already solved since I can see some successful builds of your project. I'm closing this issue. Please, feel free to reopen it if you consider.

@humitos:

It's only because I have switched to BitBucket, which I use as alternative to GitHub for all my open source projects. There I use Mercurial (not Git) and I don't have Git sub-modules there. Thus, the problem remains. It's just I have found a work-around for myself (do not use Git sub-modules, in this particular case).

Simply put, if you try to generate docs (with Read the Docs) from this repository, you'll get the error.

I have no objections of you closing the issue, but there's a bug which isn't yet addressed.

@barseghyanartur thanks for your feedback.

I just import the repo you mentioned in my local instance of RTD and I wasn't able to reproduce this issue. The clone worked properly but it fails with another problem that seems to be tied to the repo itself, not RTD:

Exception occurred:
  File "conf.py", line 24, in <module>
    from nine.versions import DJANGO_LTE_1_7, DJANGO_GTE_1_8, DJANGO_GTE_1_7
ImportError: No module named nine.versions

Please, if you have a way to reproduce the issue let me know so I can work on it.

That's really weird. It fails on django-nine for you, which is a part of install_requires in the setup.py.

In any case, I have just created another copy of the docs with GitHub as a source and guess what - it's passing now.

I don't know what was it, but it seems to be fixed. Thanks for checking!

Thanks!

@humitos:

OK, another FYI update on the issue. I switched back from BitBucket to GitHub and it works, but:

I had to set the Programming Language (in Settings) to Only Words (was Python). Without the change it keeps failing.

[humitos]

Oh, that looks very strange.

Would you mine opening a new issue for that so we track this new error?

Thanks for the update! :)
