After enabling DEBUG log, I find the error was thrown when copying the symlink docs/nightly/docs

@bih could you please take a look?

I'm not sure if this is the case for you, but I ran into a similar error and traced it to the inability to work with symbolic links in included docs/ directories, at least when those links point to a file outside of the included docs/ directories.

I created a separate Issue #145 , but these may be the same issue.

@bih Can you please take a look at this issue?
