Description

I'm generating the documentation under windows 10 and anaconda environement and I'm getting the following error when running "make html":

reading sources... [ 81%] examples
Exception occurred:
File "C:\Users\Eigenaar\Anaconda3\lib\pathlib.py", line 1046, in _opener
return self._accessor.open(self, flags, mode)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: **'G:\\GitHub\\mplfinance\\doc\\source\\..\\..\\examples\\date_demo1.py'**
The full traceback has been saved in C:\Users\Eigenaar\AppData\Local\Temp\sphinx-err-7rb4yftl.log, if you want to report the issue to the developers.
Please also report this if it was a user error, so that a better error message can be provided next time.
A bug report can be filed in the tracker at . Thanks!

- OS: Windows
- Python 3.7.5/Anaconda

Any hints?

Research direction

Start by running "make html" in the documentation under Windows with the reported Anaconda environment. Inspect the documentation reference to examples/date_demo1.py and verify the referenced path and file location; done means the documentation build completes without this FileNotFoundError.
