Dear list,

exporting an org file to odt I get this error under debian Linux
(Windows works fine) [excerpt from *Messages*]:


Using schema ~/.emacs.d/org/contrib/odt/etc/schema/od-schema-v1.2-cs01.rnc
ODT export done, pushed to kill ring and clipboard
OVERVIEW
CONTENTS...done
Using schema ~/.emacs.d/org/contrib/odt/etc/schema/od-schema-v1.2-cs01.rnc
tramp-file-name-handler: Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size


I cannot find the connection to tramp. I do not use tramp anywhere.
Anyone could imagine what's wrong?

Thanks,
Rainer

Ok, just deactivating tramp resolves the problem,
but I do not understand where tramp is jumping in and doing anything not
really needed.

Hi Rainer,

The only think I can think of is that org-odt.el uses the /tmp/
directory to cache files while processing them.

Maybe you don't have permission to write to this files, and tramp 
is the one reporting the error.

Surely Jambunathan can tell better.

Hi Bastien,

no, I do have write permissions and do find odt-* folders filled with
files there.
I hope Jambunathan can help.

Merci beaucoup!

Can you do M-x toggle-debug-on-error and post the stack trace? 

This is more likely to happen when a file/directory is being read or
written in to and the prefix of the path looks as though it is a remote
file. May be there is a bug in odt when it expands/abbrevs filename and
directories.

Btw, what is different in your current setup. Why it didn't happen with
earlier invocations. (I assume you were able to export to odt in earlier
trial runs successfully)

Ok, solved. I had to remove some Windows settings and paths from my
.emacs - or better, only load them when being under Windows. Obviously
the exporting process somewhere took the Windows path patterns as
trampable triggers.


Thanks!
Rainer.
