Hello,

I'm new to RTD. I read the whole day through the documentation, but still don't understand the building error I get:

Connecting to my GitHub repository RTD fails with building my documentation with the following error message:

No setup.py, skipping install


Note: I'm using markdown files. A first build was successful, but since I added a mkdocs.yml to set the order of documents in the left navigation bar, I only get those python related error messages when trying to rebuild.
The content of the mkdocs.yml seems to be correct since building my documentation works when deployed in a local Linux environment. But deployment at RTD failes. I have Python 2.7.6 installed and pip 1.5.4 according to the requirements outlined at the mkdocs page.

It seems to be a simple building error but since I'm new to RTD and python I'm stuck with that error.

Does anybody know what to do?

I'm seeing this as well.  Also new to RTD so wondering if you managed to solve this or anyone else could advise please?

For me the documentation is viewable as expected and updates with new builds - however I don't see the PDF or EPUB downloads (both options are ticked) and if I try to search I get zero results back for search terms that should find some pages. 

Many thanks for any assistance.

Andy
