Re: HTML export doesn't work when #+TITLE: is added

Hi Org-ML,

I'm trying to resolve an issue similar to the one here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2015-08/msg01195.html

Where I cannot export a file with a #+TITLE in it with the latest
org-mode release.

The solution that Kyle refers to[0] is to uninstall and then update
again with the latest org version. Can someone tell me how to do that? I
have tried running emacs with `emacs -q` and even then the older version
of org-mode installed in /usr/local/share/emacs/24.5/lisp/org is loaded
so it interferes.

Do I really need to uninstall emacs and then re-install it to be able to
use the newer org-mode version (8.3.1)? Is there not a way to override
the installed version of org-mode with a newer one from ELPA?

To follow-up on this, this was due to having in my init.el:

(setq package-enable-at-startup nil)

Which meant that packages were not initialized at the beginning of my
configuration, only at the end. Removing this line has fixed my issue.

HTML export doesn't work when #+TITLE: is added

[Lohan Gunaweera]

Hello, I am new to this mailing list and relatively new to org-mode too.

I am running org-mode 8.3.1 with Emacs 24.5.1. When I attempt to export
a file that contains #+TITLE: the export fails. Instead I am shown the
following message:

"Wrong type argument: listp, #("Title_of_the_document" 0 40 (: parent (#0)))

Until now I was using emacs 23, the version provided by my operating
system (Trisquel 6) org export worked without any problem until I
installed the latest version.

What can I do to resolve this issue?

Regards,
Lohan

This looks similar to previous issues related to a loaded version of Org
interfering with the update (for example,
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/99535).

Please uninstall and then update again without any version of Org
loaded.

Thanks very much Kyle!

I reinstalled emacs and then installed org-mode from within emacs
list-packages.

Exports are working fine now.
