Instead of: "SCHEDULED: <2010-08-26 Thu .+2d/4d>" I had: "SCHEDULED: <2010-08-26 Thu .+2nd/4d>" When trying to view my agenda, I was presented with a blank agenda and Emacs very quietly reported: "org-habit-duration-to-days: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil" which is not really helpful. Removing the bad character fixes the issue, and I can duplicate the error condition as described above. Perhaps some better error trapping could be done? Regards, Paul.
