New exporter (org-e-odt) not creating content.xml

New exporter (org-e-odt) not creating content.xml

[Ista Zahn]

I can't seem to get the new odt exporter working on my Windows machine
at work (it works fine on Linux at home). Specifically, when I call
'M-x export-dispatch o o'  I get an odt archive with the following
contents.

M Filemode      Length  Date         Time      File
- ----------  --------  -----------  --------  ----------
  -rw-rw-rw-        39  26-Nov-2012  17:31:16  mimetype
  drwxrwxrwx         0  26-Nov-2012  17:31:16  meta-inf/
  -rw-rw-rw-       782  26-Nov-2012  17:31:16  meta.xml
  -rw-rw-rw-     66559  26-Nov-2012  17:31:16  styles.xml
- ----------  --------  -----------  --------  ----------
                 67380                         4 files

Comparing with the old exporter (i.e., 'C-e o') I find

M Filemode      Length  Date         Time      File
- ----------  --------  -----------  --------  ---------------------
  -rw-rw-rw-        39  26-Nov-2012  17:31:00  mimetype
  -rw-rw-rw-     25556  26-Nov-2012  17:31:00  content.xml
  drwxrwxrwx         0  26-Nov-2012  17:31:00  meta-inf/
  -rw-rw-rw-       573  26-Nov-2012  17:31:00  META-INF/manifest.xml
  -rw-rw-rw-       807  26-Nov-2012  17:31:00  meta.xml
  -rw-rw-rw-     67037  26-Nov-2012  17:31:00  styles.xml
- ----------  --------  -----------  --------  ---------------------
                 94012                         6 files

So it seems that the new exporter is not creating content.xml, or
META-INF/manifest.xml. Again this only happens on Windows. It is
reproducible every time, and is reproducible starting with emacs -q
and then loading only org and org-e-odt.

Thanks for any suggestions, and please let me know what other
information I can provide to make it easier for you to help me.

Best,
Ista

I switched from Windows XP to a Debian few months back.  I am not sure
what would make content.xml disappear.  Let me investigate...

Meanwhile, check your messages buffer and see whether something looks
suspicious.  Following log is from Debian, it tells what the
exporter/Emacs is doing.  Specfically note where it creates the
content.xml file.

Hi!

I am using

Like Rainer I cannot reproduce.

'M-org-version' produces

Org-mode version N/A (N/A @ c:/Documents and
Settings/IZAHN/.emacs.d/izahn/org-mode/lisp/)

but this is orgmode from git, updated yesterday.

I have cygwin installed, but emacs is the windows version from
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/

The OS is Windows XP professional with service pack 3.

I started emacs with emacs -q and evaluated the following lines with 'C-x-e':

;; Look recursively in .emacs.d for elisp files and packages
(let ((default-directory "~/.emacs.d/"))
  (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '("."))
  (normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path))

;; just to make sure...
(mapc (lambda (path) (add-to-list 'load-path path))
      '("~/.emacs.d/elpa/elnode-0.9.9"
	"~/.emacs.d/izahn/org-mode/lisp"
	"~/.emacs.d/izahn/org-mode/contrib/lisp"
	"~/.emacs.d/izahn/org-ehtml/src"
	"~/.emacs.d/izahn/org-ehtml/test/lisp"))

I also tried selecting just the subtree, with the same results, i.e.,
no content.xml

Also, I just noticed that a content.xml buffer is created, with what
looks like the correct content. It's just not making it into the .odt

Thanks for any further pointers!

I think I have some idea of what might be going wrong.

Create a ielm buffer with

    M-x ielm RET

and type out the following 4 lisp forms ONE-by-ONE.

(setq org-e-odt-zip-dir (file-name-as-directory (make-temp-file "odt-" t)))
(with-current-buffer (find-file-noselect (concat org-e-odt-zip-dir
"content.xml") t) (buffer-file-name))
(with-current-buffer (get-file-buffer (concat org-e-odt-zip-dir
"content.xml")) (save-buffer 0))
(get-file-buffer (concat org-e-odt-zip-dir "content.xml"))

In my case, the session looks like this.  Note that `ELISP>' you see
below is the command prompt.

    ,----
    | *** Welcome to IELM ***  Type (describe-mode) for help.
    | ELISP> (setq org-e-odt-zip-dir (file-name-as-directory
(make-temp-file "odt-" t)))
    | "/tmp/odt-4998J4g/"
    | ELISP> (with-current-buffer (find-file-noselect (concat
org-e-odt-zip-dir "content.xml") t) (buffer-file-name))
    | "/tmp/odt-4998J4g/content.xml"
    | ELISP> (with-current-buffer (get-file-buffer (concat
org-e-odt-zip-dir "content.xml")) (save-buffer 0))
    | nil
    | ELISP> (get-file-buffer (concat org-e-odt-zip-dir "content.xml"))
    | #<buffer content.xml<5>>
    | ELISP>
    `----

In my case, the 3rd line also prints the following in messages buffer

    ,----
    | Wrote /tmp/odt-4998J4g/content.xml
    `----

In your case, I suspect that the 3rd line will report an error and the
4th line will report a nil.  If this is true, then either my
understanding of `get-file-buffer' is incorrect or that
`get-file-buffer' is buggy.

Additional Note:

1. org-odt.el succeeds possibly because it doesn't use `get-file-buffer'
   at all.

2. Emacs is (confusingly) mangling filenames

    Wrote c:/Documents and Settings/IZAHN/Local

I have filed a bug:

    http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13013

Irrespective of what the Emacs maintainers feel about this issue, I will
push a fix.  (But fix will take couple of day's time to hit the repo.)

Thanks for the bug report.

To add to that 

As a temporary work around, you can also do
    M-x customize-variable RET temporary-file-directory RET

and point in to some directory that doesn't have spaces or long names.

With my (future) fix, the above customization may not be necessary.

Thank you, I'm currently working around this with

;; fix f'ed up windows temp directory
(if (eq system-type 'windows-nt)
  (setq temporary-file-directory "c:/tmp/")
)

in my init.el, and odt export is now working as expected.

Best,
Ista

well I cannot trust you ;-)

I think you did not configure/build org properly (Achim may confirm here).

Please read the documentation (M-x org-info) and the worg page here:

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html

and please, configure org properly. Then we can investigate if this behaviour is 
really a bug or is it due to misconfiguration.

Same as me. 
Please check your configuration/activation.

Is is not useful if you have not configured/activated org.

Yes, I've read the documentation.

 and the worg page here:
>

Is that really necessary? I keep org updated using the instructions at
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#keeping-current-with-Org-mode-development.
"ad hoc code, quick hacks and workarounds" does not sound like what I
want...

>

The only thing I see that I missed is "make autoloads", and indeed
after running this I get a sensible org-version:

Org-mode version 7.9.2 (release_7.9.2-638-g09cfdb @
/Users/izahn/.emacs.d/izahn/org-mode/lisp/)

Then we can investigate if this behaviour is
> really a bug or is it due to misconfiguration.

Fair enough. Unfortunately I'm not at my Windows machine today, so I
can't test to see if 'make autoloads' changed anything.
