Adding new heading results in "not in an item"

Adding new heading results in "not in an item"

Hi all,
I've installed version 8 of org-mode and now I get the message "not in an
item" when I try to add new headings with "M-RET". What is wrong?

Hi Johan !


Well, tried but it just works fine for me (which is a very big relief :-)

Which of the installation methodes as sketched in http://orgmode.org/Changes.html (First section, "Installation")
did you use ?

Do you see any old (i.e. pre-8) lisp-directories in your load-path ? Do you find any old lisp-files within
the directories, where you put the files from version 8 ?


regards, Marc

Cheers,

Thanks guys,

Marc: I use git for installation and I don't think I have any old files in
my load path. I have the files in my home directory but the compiled files
are installed in the system emacs/site-lisp.

Victor: Good, but please help a newbie. How do I apply this patch?

Finally, I noticed that adding a new heading works with Ctrl-RET. But I
still want M-RET to work!

The compiled files *are* in your load-path, because Emacs loads them
when you launch it.  This is in /usr/.../emacs/lisp/loaddefs.el, which
contains pointers to the autoloaded functions.  Some Org's functions
are autoloaded by Emacs, and these are functions from an older version
than the one you installed manually.

You don't need to install this particular patch, you just need to
updated your Git installation.

~$ cd org-mode/  [change with the relevant path]
~$ git pull
~$ make

This pull latest master branch and compile Org.

Or you can do:

~$ cd org-mode/  [change with the relevant path]
~$ make update

Please follow the instructions above and report any problem you may
have afterwards.

Thank you!
It worked again after a "make up2".
