Babel shell script issue

Babel shell script issue

[Jarmo Hurri]

Greetings.

I have trouble running shell scripts in Babel. I can't even reproduce
examples from worg. For example, this piece of org

  #+begin_src sh :results drawer
  cat <<EOF
  | 1 | 2
  |--
  | a | b
  EOF
  #+end_src

from this page

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/header-args.html

produces the following error:

org-babel-variable-assignments:sh: Symbol's function definition is void: org-babel-get-header

I have just pulled the most recent org, that is,
release_8.3.4-753-gda4db33.

Any tips?

Jarmo

Have you done this:

  (require 'ob-shell)
  
?

Hi,

I had the same problem. You actually need to use:

    #+begin_src shell :results drawer
    #+end_src

Using sh loads an org function that comes with your emacs and is outdated...

Btw could these functions be marked as deprecated but aliased to the new
ones?

Interestingly, "sh" worked for me with quite a recent org from git but I
do think you are correct that the proper usage is with "shell".

If I change 'sh' to 'shell', I loose the syntax highlighting of the
code.  Is 'sh' really deprecated and, if so, how can I get the code back
in colour?

Ok, this removes the error, but I still get no reasonable output from
the example from worg:

  #+begin_src shell :results drawer
  cat <<EOF
  | 1 | 2
  |--
  | a | b
  EOF
  #+end_src

It only prints a bunch of cryptic stuff in the echo area and produces no
other output. (The same happens in my own code.)

Yes I have, and it doesn't solve the issue.

I am currently exchanging emails with Sylvain in order to resolve the
issue.

Thanks,
