I'm getting the following error, when trying to do an org-capture.
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Invalid file location: nil")
signal(error ("Invalid file location: nil"))
error("Invalid file location: %S" nil)
org-capture-expand-file((concat org-directory "inbox-gtd.org"))
org-capture-target-buffer((concat org-directory "inbox-gtd.org"))
org-capture-set-target-location()
org-capture(nil)
My org-capture-templates is set as follows for ages:
(setq org-capture-templates
'(("t" "Todo" entry (file+headline (concat org-directory "inbox-gtd.org") "Tasks")
"* TODO %?\n %i\n %a")
))
org-directory: "/Users/hrizvi/Google Drive/MyDocs/org/"
With a fully qualified file-name, it works fine:
(setq org-capture-templates
'(("t" "Todo" entry (file+headline "/Users/hrizvi/Google Drive/MyDocs/org/inbox-gtd.org" "Tasks")
"* TODO %?\n %i\n %a")
))
Reading up org-capture-expand-file, it seems org-directory is
prepended automatically, but it used to work fine in the
past. Flipping back to the older code for org-capture-expand-file
works fine. So I'd say this is a bug!
(emacs-version)
"GNU Emacs 26.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-apple-darwin16.7.0, NS appkit-1504.83 Version 10.12.6 (Build 16G29))
of 2017-09-13"
(org-version)
"9.1.2"

Org 9.1 onwards, bare sexp's are now allowed in the template.
From ORG-NEWS:
*** ~org-capture-templates~ no longer accepts S-expressions as file names
Since functions are allowed there, a straightforward way to migrate
is to turn, e.g.,
: (file (sexp))
into
: (file (lambda () (sexp)))

As mentioned above, this is expected.

Got it. I missed the news I guess :-)
Thanks for the quick response, Kaushal.
