Thank you so much, Nicolas. For your reference, I had to add (setq org-export-async-debug t) as well. So this is my minimal-org.el #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp ;;; Minimal setup to load latest `org-mode' and to make async export working      ;; activate debugging (setq debug-on-error  t       debug-on-signal nil       debug-on-quit   nil)      ;; add latest org-mode to load path (add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "path/to/org-mode/lisp")) (add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "path/to/org-mode/contrib/lisp" t)) ;; probably not needed (setq org-export-async-debug t) (setq org-export-async-init-file "path/to/minimal-org.el") #+END_SRC Miguel. ________________________________ De: Nicolas Goaziou Para: Miguel Ruiz CC: "emacs-orgmode@gnu.org" Enviado: Martes 29 de octubre de 2013 9:09 Asunto: Re: [O] Very minimal async export example does not work Hello, Miguel Ruiz writes: > I'm trying to get a very minimal example of async export working. For some reason `org-export-async-init-file' is set to nil, which is not allowed (at the moment). Try setting it to "minimal-org.el" (full path) instead. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
