Problems exporting org-babel to HTML

Problems exporting org-babel to HTML

[Marco Craveiro]

Hi Org-Moders,

I've got a problem with org-babel HTML exports and I wonder if you can
help me. I'm using an up-to-date debian "emacs-snapshot" as follows:

- GNU Emacs 24.0.92.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.2.3) of
2011-12-27 on zelenka, modified by Debian
- Org-mode version 7.7

The problem manifests itself when exporting in batch mode (please see
below for source org file):

<shell output>
$ /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot --batch --visit=test.org --funcall
org-export-as-html-batch
Loading 00debian-vars...
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50autoconf.el (source)...
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50cmake-data.el (source)...
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50devhelp.el (source)...
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50dictionaries-common.el (source)...
Skipping dictionaries-common setup for emacs-snapshot
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50global.el (source)...
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50gtk-doc-tools.el (source)...
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50psvn.el (source)...
Exporting...
Symbol's function definition is void: copy-seq
</shell output>

This error is very similar to what is described here:

- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-07/msg01203.html
- #634695: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=634695

However, from reading that thread it appears I should already have this
fix. Can you please confirm if this is the case? Also, if v7.7 does not
have the fix, is there a workaround? 

The org-file i'm using is as follows:

<org_file>
#+tblname: test_chart
| Day | Expected | Actual |
|-----+----------+--------|
|   0 |        8 |      8 |
|   1 |        7 |      8 |
|   2 |        6 |      8 |
|     |          |        |
#+begin_src gnuplot :var data=test_chart :file test.png :exports both
reset
set termoption dash
set terminal png font
"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/inconsolata/Inconsolata.otf" 14
set title "Test Chart"
set auto x
set border linewidth 1.5
set style line 1 linecolor rgb "red" linetype 2 linewidth 3 pointtype 1
set style line 2 linecolor rgb "orange" linetype 2 linewidth 3 pointtype
1
set ylabel "Story Points"
set yrange [0:10]
set ytics 0,1,10
set xlabel "Time"
set xrange [0:15]
set xtics 0,1,15
plot data using 1 title 'Expected' linestyle 1 with lines, \
data using 2 title 'Actual' linestyle 2 with lines
#+end_src
#+results:
[[file:test_chart.png]]
</org_file>

Thanks for a wonderful piece of software and for your time.

Hi Marco,

Please update to the latest version of Org-mode available from git at
http://orgmode.org/org-mode-download.html and let us know if the problem
persists.

Cheers,

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the prompt reply. I was trying hard to avoid dependencies on
anything other than vanilla debian actually. If there is no other way
around it, I'll try and use git latest...

Thanks

Marco

Eric, git latest did solve the problem - thanks. For google posterity,
if you are running emacs 23 or 24 (at the time of this writing with org
mode v7.7) and if you bump into the following error while batch
exporting from gnuplot:

Symbol's function definition is void: copy-seq

You will need to obtain a later version of org-mode, which contains the
fix described here:

Many thanks for your help
