#+TBLFM: :: $2 = '(org-sbe hello_world)
#+NAME: hello_world
#+BEGIN_SRC shell -n
echo "hello"
#+END_SRC
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The error can be reproduced as follows:
(1) setup: (org-babel-do-load-languages 'org-babel-load-languages '((emacs-lisp . t) (shell . t)))
(2) with position at beg of table - C-c C-c - succeeds
(3) with position (still) at beg of table - C-c C-c (again) - fails, with Backtrace as attached.
The error is from this line in function "org-table-justify-field-maybe()" of "org-table.el":
((<= (org-string-width new) width)
... where "width" is nil.
It seems to be caused by a wrong state of variable "org-table-last-column-widths".
After the 1st C-c C-c, org-table-last-column-widths contains: "(3 5)" - correct
After the 2nd C-c C-c, org-table-last-column-widths contains: "(5)" - wrong
The latter value results, I think, from a prior invocation of "org-table-import" overwriting "org-table-last-column-widths".
(There are other ways to trigger the error; this is the simplest recipe I have found.)
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Lester
