Hi!
I've got a strange issue here: today, I set up a second laptop with
more or less identical configuration (Debian Wheezy; orgmode from
git g6fdc23). I copied my .emacs.d to the new machine but Org-mode
is not working there :-O
Whenever I open an Org file, I get:
File mode specification error: (file-error "Cannot open load file"
"org")
For testing purposes I used this minimal .emacs:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/contrib/org-mode/lisp")
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/contrib/org-mode/contrib/lisp" t)
;; assign file extensions to Org-mode
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.\\(org\\|org_archive\\|txt\\)$" . org-mode))
;;(require 'org-install) ;; vk 2012-11-20 this line is obsolete
(require 'org)
What can I check/modify?

I found an old posting with "toggle-debug-on-error" and activated it
before I open my test Org-mode file:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "Cannot open load file" "org")
org-mode()
set-auto-mode-0(org-mode nil)
set-auto-mode()
normal-mode(t)
after-find-file(nil t)
find-file-noselect-1(#<buffer test.org> "~/org/test.org" nil nil "~/share/all/org-mode/test.org" (3408929 64768))
find-file-noselect("~/org/test.org" nil nil t)
find-file("~/org/test.org" t)
call-interactively(find-file nil nil)
However, I can not interpret it :-(
"emacs --debug-init" does not show any issues in *Messages*. I just
do not have any Org-mode available when opening an Org-mode file.
When I do "M-x org-mode" I get "call-interactively: Cannot open load
file: org" in *Messages*.
Again: I'm a bit puzzled since the exact same ~/.emacs.d folder
sub-hierarchy is working on my other machine. Therefore I guess,
that the issue is rooted in the system configuration. I also removed
/usr/share/emacs/23.4/lisp/org which was Org-mode v6 (from Debian
Wheezy).

Did you try to copy a subdirs.el into the org-mode directory?

I do not understand what this does and I don't have "subdirs" in my
local configuration. I guess, this is a file which got invoked by
convention (system-Emacs config).
However, creating this file with the content above does not change
anything at my issue.
What else can I check?

I could resolve my issue meanwhile. The problem was caused by a
combination of mixed installation (see thread "mixed orgmode
installation") and a mismatch between my switch-host-function and
the hostname. In other words: there were two separate errors that
caused Org-mode not to be set-up as expected.
Sorry for the fuzz and thanks for all tips!
