Build Fail Sphinx Error contents.rst not found

Question

I follow the instructions on read the docs but I get this error:

bash Sphinx error: master file /home/docs/checkouts/readthedocs.org/user_builds/mybinde

Answer 1

I've needed to have my conf.py because of the extensions I'm using so simply add

master_doc = 'contents'

to your conf.py and than

rename your index.rst to contents.rst.

Than after build passes OK you still won't see anything on ReadTheDocs, except "This page still doesn't exists" just go to:

https://your-project.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contents.html

And you'll see your docs there.
