Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I use org-src-mode with org-src-auto-save-idle-delay (set to 1s), and after upgrading org to the latest master version, it's repeatedly causing me trouble: When I open an org-src-mode buffer and close it with C-c ', I repeatedly get the message "Error running timer: (wrong-type-argument timerp nil)". The backtrace is for a compiled function, but after disassembling, it's pretty clear that it's the routine in the lambda in org-src-mode that tries to cancel `org-src--auto-save-timer'. Here are the steps that will do it for me, but I haven't been very lucky reproducing this consistently: (setq org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay 1 org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save nil) 1. Open an org file with elisp source code blocks 2. Use C-c ' on one of those blocks 3. Edit the buffer 4. Close the buffer after a while with C-c ' If it reproduces correctly, emacs shows the error above whenever it has been idle for 1s. The backtrace that I got is this: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument timerp nil) signal(wrong-type-argument (timerp nil)) cancel-timer(nil) #f(compiled-function () #)() apply(#f(compiled-function () #) nil) timer-event-handler([t 0 1 0 t #f(compiled-function () #) nil idle 0]) And here's the bottom of the disassembly for #: 42:4 discard 43 dup 44 not 45 goto-if-nil-else-pop 5 48 constant cancel-timer 49 varref org-src--auto-save-timer 50 call 1 51 discard 52 constant nil 53 dup 54 varset org-src--auto-save-timer 55:5 stack-set 1 57 unbind 1 58 return I'm not sure how better to debug this, so please let me know if I can provide more / better data.
