Compilation from source: error

Question

I have this problem:

Compilation from source: frontend/my_vendor/my_theme/en_US/css/email-fonts.less {{{ Compilation from source: frontend/my_vendor/my_theme/en_US/css/email-fonts.less }}{{ Compilation from source: frontend/my_vendor/my_theme/en_US/css/email-fonts.less }}{{ Compilation from source: frontend/my_vendor/my_theme/en_US/css/email-fonts.less }}{{theme}}}

problem shows at deploying the file frontend/my_vendor/my_theme/en_US/css/email-fonts.css

I am new to Magento and I do not know what to fix. My version is 2.1.0

.htaccess file is in pub\static

view source shows /pub/static/frontend/my_vendor/new/el_GR/

el_gr is created after en_us I think so no theme is showing

data show correctly on a no theme page

found something here but no answer available or understood by me

Static content deploy - Compilation from source

plz help ...... thank you

Answer 1

What if you rename the source frontend/Vendor/theme/web/css/source/email-fonts.less file to _email-fonts.less (notice the underscore)

I was just getting the same notices/errors with a less file on a theme I'm trying to fix (Smartwave/porto). As soon as added the underscore in front of the filename Magento stopped complaining during static content deploy.
