Hi all,
Trying to embellish the documentation on two programs on different system I am using sphinx ver 5.0.0 on one and 5.1.1 on the other. Both act the same. In my conf.py file the
html_static_path = ['../_static'] directive does not affect the html_logo = 'logo.png' directive.

For context the file structure is:
test1.png
Following what documentation indicates is a correct way to include a logo in sphix html output:
test2.png
results in the following results from make html
test3.png
NOTE the warning.
Changing the conf.py file to not use html_static_path
test4.png
works just fine.
test5.png
And the document is as expected.
If I include an intentional error, for example html__static_path = ['../_staticx'] the results are as expected:
test6.png
Obvious workaround but...  Am I missing something?
Lou

The logo file should be relative to the source directory of conf.py, so
probably:

# The name of an image file (relative to this directory) to place at the
top
# of the sidebar.
html_logo = '../static/logo.png'
