LaTeX export crashes

LaTeX export crashes

[Ken Williams]

Hi, the following document makes a LaTeX export (C-c C-e d) crash with "Args out of range: "", -1, 0".  After that,

------------------
#+TITLE: Test doc
#+AUTHOR: Ken Williams

Some stuff.

#+begin_src R
5+5
#+end_src
------------------

Is this a known problem?

If I either omit the R source block, or add a top-level outline element to the document, then the export succeeds.  For now as a workaround I guess I'll add a header.

Thanks,

 -Ken

LaTeX export crashes

Hi, the following document makes a LaTeX export (C-c C-e d) crash with
"Args out of range: "", -1, 0".  After that, exporting (to any format)
dies with the same error.

Works for me, with Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.381.ge8629.dirty).

Here's a full stack trace, does this make it any more evident what's going on?

Not really: you have not mentioned what version you are using. Chances are
you are running an older version which has the problem, Seb is running
a recent 7.7 which does not exhibit the problem (I tried it too: works for
me as well with Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.392.g35d92)).
So upgrade to latest and see if you can reproduce the problem.

BTW, I suspect that commit 597e1eb4fe7b2674c2d5233f215217f7b35e4035 is what
fixed this problem. Given that this was done on Sept. 13, you need to run
something later than that to pick up the fix (or cherry pick the patch and
apply it to your version, but I wouldn't recommend this course of action).
The recommendation stands: upgrade!

I did post my complete config, which this message was a direct reply to:

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/47841

I probably confused matters by posting first without my config, from
the wrong address, so I thought it wouldn't make it to the list.

Nope, I'm already running 7.7.

Sorry about that - not sure what I did: I searched the list and found a
thread but it did not have a config but I may not have gone back far
enough.

As I pointed out in the subsequent message, that's not good enough: 7.7 came out
on July 28 and the fix (at least what I *think* is the fix) did not go in until
September 13.

Yup - that's what it was. I found the *other* thread:

      http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/47842

Ah, I see - I was thinking 7.7 came out at the end of September, not
sure why I thought that.

Looking at commit 597e1eb it does seem on target.  I'll probably hold
off upgrading until 7.8, since I'm running in a corporate environment
& I can survive fine with workarounds.

Thanks for your help.
