You may need to remove namespaces. See :ref:`removing-namespaces`.
Running ``runspider`` I get ``error: No spider found in file: <filename>``
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This may happen if your Scrapy project has a spider module with a name that
conflicts with the name of one of the `Python standard library modules`_, such
as ``csv.py`` or ``os.py``, or any `Python package`_ that you have installed.
See :issue:`2680`.
