No submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for path

When I run

git submodule update
No submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for path 'Classes/lib/AFKissXMLRequestOperation'

But I have no submodule Classes/lib/AFKissXMLRequestOperation in current repos

My git config is:

[core]
    repositoryformatversion = 0
    filemode = true
    bare = false
    logallrefupdates = true
    ignorecase = true
    precomposeunicode = false
[remote "origin"]
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
    url = [email protected]:why_ios.git
[branch "master"]
    remote = origin
    merge = refs/heads/master
[submodule "External/ios-SDNestedTable"]
    url = [email protected]:why/ios-SDNestedTable.git
[submodule "External/PSStackedView"]
    url = [email protected]:why/PSStackedView.git

and .gitmodules is:

[submodule "External/ios-SDNestedTable"]
    path = External/ios-SDNestedTable
    url = [email protected]:why/ios-SDNestedTable.git
[submodule "External/PSStackedView"]
    path = External/PSStackedView
    url = [email protected]:why/PSStackedView.git

Just leaving this here for anyone using git on Windows. It is possible to follow all of the answers online and still have it not work due to git's handling of path separators. E.g.:

My problem case was adding hugo themes via submodule:

git submodule add https://github.com/danielkvist/hugo-terrassa-theme.git themes\terrassa

will result in a .gitmodules like:

[submodule "themes\\terrassa"]
    path = themes\\terrassa
    url = https://github.com/danielkvist/hugo-terrassa-theme.git

Which will cause problems for git submodule [status || init || ...]

Manually replacing the separators to:

[submodule "themes/terrassa"]
    path = themes/terrassa
    url = https://github.com/danielkvist/hugo-terrassa-theme.git

...solved it for me.

Also solved the deployment on Netlify since they use *nix server images.

check that you have the proper setting in .git/modules as well. Since a few versions ago, git adds an entry there.

Also, the tree probably has a commit object at that path. To get rid of it you can

git rm --cached Classes/lib/AFKissXMLRequestOperation

that should get rid of it once and for all.
