There was a problem with Read the Docs while building your documentation. Build id (7504698).

Details

• Read the Docs project URL: https://readthedocs.org/projects/drymass/
• Build URL (if applicable): https://readthedocs.org/projects/drymass/builds/7504698/
• Read the Docs username (if applicable): paulmueller

Expected Result

The documentation builds.

Actual Result

The build stops without any other error messages after cat docs/conf.py.

More information

• This is a sphinx project, the package source code is Python >= 3.6 and I am using autodoc
• The build runs fine with my local setup (Python 3.6)
• The build time is only 100s, so it is not a timeout.
• I started to experience this problem after the new rtd release 2.6.0. This might be related.
• Issue Build fail without any error in mkdocs projects #4380 did not solve my problem.

I saw this commit RI-imaging/DryMass@5a8dced, just to clarify rtd does support python 3.6 but you need to specify a build image with that version https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/yaml-config.html#build-image

I was able to build your docs in my local instance, so not sure what the problem is :/

Thanks for the hint - that seemed to have solved it 🎆.

Would it make sense for rtd to check for the Python version in setup.py?
e.g.:

setup(...
         python_requires='>=3.6, <4',
         ...)

I am just thinking that something along these lines might make it easier to debug this type of issue.

@paulmueller not all projects have a python_requires or even a setup.py file, so respecting that would be tricky. Glad that your docs are building again!
