Hi,

The following MWE

* Test repeating task

** My tasks

*** TODO Test task
    SCHEDULED: <2021-08-18 Wed +1w>

works fine:

* Test repeating task

** My tasks

*** TODO Test task
    SCHEDULED: <2021-08-25 Wed +1w>
    :PROPERTIES:
    :LAST_REPEAT: [2021-08-18 Wed 07:50]
    :END:

    - State "DONE"       from "TODO"       [2021-08-18 Wed 07:50]

However, when part of a larger file, the state information is inserted twice:

* Test repeating task

** My tasks

*** TODO Test task
    SCHEDULED: <2021-08-25 Wed +1w>
    :PROPERTIES:
    :LAST_REPEAT: [2021-08-18 Wed 08:02]
    :END:
    - State "DONE"       from "TODO"       [2021-08-18 Wed 08:02]
    - State "DONE"       from "TODO"       [2021-08-18 Wed 08:02]

Moreover for a similar task in the same larger file, when the state is
changed to DONE, I get the error

  user-error: Before first headline at position 1 in buffer gtd.org

and neither the SCHEDULED date nor the LAST_REPEAT date are updated:

*** DONE Read mail
    SCHEDULED: <2021-08-18 Wed +1w>
    :PROPERTIES:
    :LAST_REPEAT: [2021-07-21 Wed 08:32]
    :ID:       639369df-7c91-443a-89bd-b7f97719bda7
    :END:
    - State "DONE"       from "TODO"       [2021-08-18 Wed 07:27]

I'm running Org mode version 9.4.6 on Emacs 26.1.

Any ideas what I could look for in the larger Org file which might be
causing the problem?

Cheers,

Loris
