building the docs

[Federico Bruni]

I've tried building the docs but I'm getting this error:

$ sphinx-build -b html docs docs/build
Running Sphinx v1.2

Hi Federico,

ALLOWED_HOSTS, TIME_ZONE, and SECRET_KEY do not have values. Make sure you have those set in your settings.py or local_settings.py.

Backing up a moment, we see that Mezzanine is installed in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/. I urge you to follow the recommendations of http://effectivedjango.com/tutorial/getting-started.html and install Django, Mezzanine, and other applications in a virtualenv (http://www.virtualenv.org/en/latest/).

hth,

ken

Hi Ken

I thought that building the docs was indipendent from starting a mezzanine project. That's why I'm not using a virtualenv in this case.
My goal is being able to test a doc patch about deployment, in case I manage to write something reasonable.

Django gets loaded so that we can retrieve all of Mezzanine's settings (mezzanine.conf), which each contain names and descriptions - these are then used to generate the settings docs here: http://mezzanine.jupo.org/docs/configuration.html

You can't load Django without SECRET_KEY defined.

Ok, I'm using a virtualenv where I've installed mezzanine and sphinx.

The SECRET_KEY value is in an environment variable within the virtualenv.

I'm getting the same error message, see log attached

Hi I am getting the same error on webfaction:

File "/home/jameslewis/lib/python2.7/django/conf/__init__.py", line 44, in _setup

self._wrapped = Settings(settings_module)

File "/home/jameslewis/lib/python2.7/django/conf/__init__.py", line 113, in __init__

raise ImproperlyConfigured("The SECRET_KEY setting must not be empty.")

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: The SECRET_KEY setting must not be empty.

 

But the thing is I have the secret key in both settings.py and local_settings.py what could this be?

Thanks :-)
