Hi all,

I'm trying to use org-babel-dot on windows but when I try to generate an
image with C-c C-c the following errors apear:

Error: dot: can't open
c\:/Users/bas/AppData/Local/Temp/babel-8036JGY/dot-8036HHn
Error: dot: can't open Dropbox/backward.png

It seems that the file path is not handled correctly. Have there been any
error reports about this? Or can this be solved be changing my configuration
somehow.

- System : Windows 7 64 bit
- dot executable is in the $PATH
- org-mode version git commit cae9f947beb5f529569a7eb33b460e670fb8ff97 (this
behavior also exists in 7.7)
- Emacs 23.2.1

Any light on this issue would be greatly apreciated.

Regards,

Bas Bossink

Hi Bas,

Unfortunately I don't have access to a windows machine to reproduce this
problem.

Does the temporary file name mentioned in your error report exist, and
does it look to be a valid file name?  Org-mode uses built-in Emacs
functions for creating temporary files, and these functions are supposed
to work across Windows/*nix systems, so I'm not sure what the problem
could be.

Are you using the latest version of Org-mode, and do you have anything
weird in your configuration which could cause this problem?

Sorry I can't be of more help, maybe another windows user on the list
can check that dot works for them.

Best -- Eric

The following works for me (just tested) on Windows XP SP3:

#+begin_src dot :file foo.png :cmdline -Tpng
digraph G {
  a -> b [label="hello", style=dashed];
  a -> c [label="world"];
  c -> d; b -> c; d -> a;
  b [shape=Mdiamond, label="this is b"];
  c [shape=polygon, sides=5, peripheries=3];
  d [style=bold];
}
#+end_src

Could you maybe provide an ECM of what you were trying to use?

Best regards,
  Seb

Hi Eric,

I'm using the following version of org-mode and Emacs:

commit cae9f947beb5f529569a7eb33b460e670fb8ff97
Author: Eric Schulte <schulte.eric@gmail.com>
Date:   Tue Aug 30 14:50:26 2011 -0600

Emacs: GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601)
 of 2011-03-10 on 3249CTO

The error says: Error: dot: can't open
c\:/Users/bas/AppData/Local/Temp/babel-2652SMW/dot-2652b4h

running:
dot -Tpng \Users\bas\AppData\Local\Temp\babel-2652SMW\dot-2652b4h -o
test.png

in a cmd window works fine and generates the png I would expect.

About my configuration, I don't know if there is anything weird in it. For
reference I appended the org-mode part of my .emacs at the bottom of this
message.

Do you know anybody who has a Windows box that can reproduce/investigate
this problem?

Thanks for your quick response.

Regards,

Bas Bossink

I would suggest updating to the most recent version of Org-mode and see
if that fixes your issue, as we have confirmed that others are able to
evaluate dot code blocks on Windows machines.

That shows a problem that I would relate to the shell.

BTW, I find your filepath quite weird, with c\:/Users... I'm sure there is a
quoting problem there. What happens if you try M-x ffap on that path?  Does
Emacs recognize it?

Hence, your org-mode config is not important; the one which is, is the one
about shell. Something such as:

#+begin_src sh
      ;; for single shell commands
      (setq shell-file-name
            ;; must be in the `PATH' (Windows users)
            (cond ((executable-find "bash") "bash")
                  ((executable-find "cmdproxy.exe") "cmdproxy.exe")
                  (t "cmd.exe"))) ;; = system shell

      ;; use `shell-file-name' as the default shell
      (when (try-require 'env)
        (setenv "SHELL" shell-file-name))

      ;; switch used to have the shell execute its command line argument
      ;; (`/c' does not work with XEmacs)
      (setq shell-command-switch
            (cond ((eq shell-file-name "cmd.exe") "/c") ; using a system shell
                  (t "-c")))

      ;; quote process arguments to ensure correct parsing on Windows
      (setq w32-quote-process-args
            (cond ((eq shell-file-name "cmd.exe") nil) ; using a system shell
                  (t t)))
#+end_src

HTH.
