Hello,
After recently learning about Babel, I've been working my way through
some of the examples in the various languages' documentation, and I've
run into a problem with Maxima. I evaluated this code, taken from the
documentation at
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-maxima.html#sec-4-3,
with only the filename changed:
#+name: 3d-maxima
#+header: :file maxima-3d.png
#+header: :exports results
#+header: :results graphics
#+begin_src maxima
programmode: false;
plot3d(atan(-x^2+y^3/4),[x,-4,4],[y,-4,4],[grid,50,50],[gnuplot_pm3d,true]);
#+end_src
It returns this:
#+RESULTS: 3d-maxima
[[file:maxima-3d.png]]
The file is empty, though.
Running the code from within the Maxima REPL produces the expected
result.
I'm running Org version 20160201 on GNU Emacs 24.4.1 with Maxima 5.34.1
on Debian Jessie.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Aloha Zachary,
That example works here.
Do the other maxima examples work for you and only this one fails?
All the best,
Tom

Confirmed.
You haven't said what version you are using or what kind of system you
are running on so I will assume up to date org on Linux as why would you
be doing otherwise ;-)
What is happening is that maxima, at least on my system (Debian
testing), is creating the plot in my home directory and not where the
org file is. Check your home directory to see if the plot is there.
If you specify a full path, e.g. /tmp/maxima-3d.png, it may work for you
(it does for me) although obviously this is less than ideal.
The fix would be to have the argument to set_plot_option for the
gnuplot_plot_file be a fully qualified file name.
(beyond my ability to fix unfortunately)
HTH,
eric

Thank you, that was exactly what was happening.

Great. Maybe submit a bug report to have this on the list of things to
fix (sometime)?
