error "Capture abort: (void-function org-pop-to-buffer-same-window)"

error "Capture abort: (void-function org-pop-to-buffer-same-window)"

[Eric Belpaire]

Hello

I'm trying to fix Lisp error: (error "Capture abort: (void-function 
org-pop-to-buffer-same-window)").

I'm using GNU Emacs 24.0.91.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2011-11-08 on 
MARVIN
started with the Emacs starter kit and using org-20111229.

I've done the following analysis:
- function org-pop-to-buffer-same-window found in org-20111229/org-compat.el
- autoload "org-compat.el" in 
~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20111229/org-autoloads.el doesn't work
- (require 'org-autoloads) --> doesn't work
- verify load-path --> found "~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20111229" before 
"c:/Usr/emacs/lisp/org"

What am I missing?
Can someone help me?

Thanks,
Eric

Eric,

I've seen this too.  The problem is that the site-file version of org is
loaded by starter-kit, then you load a local version in your init file.
It looks like the local version is at the front of your load-path, but
that's only after your init file runs.

One soultion proposed elsewhere on this list is to do
(package-initialize) in the primary init.el before starter-kit gets
going.  That way, it picks up the elpa version of org from the git-go.

I confirm that this solution fixed my issue. 

Thanks,

This did not fix the issue for me.

1) Install org from ELPA.
2) Place (package-initialize) in `init.el`.
2.5) Remove .elc files.
3) Restart emacs.

Re: error "Capture abort: (void-function org-pop-to-buffer-same-window)"

[Daniel E. Doherty]

Jeff,

What I actually did is the following:

1. Define the following function in a file called ded-org-load.el

========================== ded-org-load.el =======================
(require 'cl)

(defun ded-add-local-org-to-load-path (dir-list)
  "Add any org directory found in DIR-LIST to the front of the load-path"
  (let ((local-dirs dir-list)
        (org-dirs '())
        (org-dir nil))
    (dolist (dir (reverse local-dirs) org-dir)
      (when (setq org-dirs
                (remove* "^org"
                         (directory-files (expand-file-name dir starter-kit-dir))
                         :test-not 'string-match))
        (setq org-dir dir))
      (when org-dirs
        ;; Sort org-dirs by date to get most recent to car position
        (setq org-dirs (sort org-dirs (lambda (x y) (string-lessp y x))))
        (setq org-dir (concat starter-kit-dir org-dir "/" (car org-dirs)))
        (add-to-list 'load-path org-dir)))))
=====================================================================

2. In the main init file, in my case ~/.emacs.d/init.el, I added the
following line to load that function before any org-babel stuff takes
place.
======================== init.el =====================================
;; remember this directory
(setq starter-kit-dir
      (file-name-directory (or load-file-name (buffer-file-name))))

;;; These lines added to Eric Schulte's starter-kit init.el
;; put package version of org to the front of the load path
(load-file (concat starter-kit-dir "src/ded-org-load.el"))
(ded-add-local-org-to-load-path '("src" "elpa" "el-get"))

;; load up the starter kit
(org-babel-load-file (expand-file-name "starter-kit.org" starter-kit-dir))

;;; init.el ends here
(put 'narrow-to-page 'disabled nil)
======================================================================

3. The effect of the function is to look for the most recent org
distribution in the "src" "elpa" and "el-get" directories, in that order
of preference and add that directory to the front of the load-path so it
shadows the version that comes distributed with Emacs 24.

Hope this helps.

Dan

Re: error "Capture abort: (void-function org-pop-to-buffer-same-window)"

[Jeff Horn]

Thanks, Dan. This fits my preferences for loading org exactly. One
small hitch, however. No errors were produced during startup, but
trying to open the agenda (C-a a) produces the following error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function org-babel-result-hide-spec)

It's probably unrelated, but since your solution is the only change
I've made I'm not sure what's triggering it.
