org-babel-load-file fails with (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)

Hi list,

I'm using Org-mode version 8.2.10 (8.2.10-dist @
/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/vendor/org-mode/lisp/) -- which as you can
see was installed in a custom location, with emacs GNU Emacs 24.3.1
(x86_64-apple-darwin11.4.2, Carbon Version 1.6.0 AppKit 1138.51) of
2014-04-03 on Yukikaze.local.

After updating to org 8.2.10, I started getting some cryptic (for me)
errors with org-babel. My main conf file is an org file which gets
processed by babel to .el. It used to work fine, but now I get this
(stacktrace follows):

`
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
  expand-file-name(nil)
  load-file(nil)
  org-babel-load-file("/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/fullofcaffeine.org")
  mapc(org-babel-load-file ("/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/
fullofcaffeine.org"))
  eval-buffer(#<buffer  *load*> nil
"/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/init.el" nil t)  ; Reading at buffer
position 1458
  load-with-code-conversion("/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/init.el"
"/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/init.el" t t)
  load("/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/init" t t)
  #[nil "^H\205\276^@   \306=\203^Q^@\307^H\310Q\202A^@

`

Here's my init.el file: http://pastie.org/private/1eajm9mkmqfjbpr0z3ska

Does anyone know what is the issue?

Thanks,

*bump* does anyone have any idea? I'd like to save my current org setup,
but looks like I'll need to do a clean install. Thanks!

Well, it seems as if the org-babel-tangle-file call in
org-babel-load-file returns nil, but it's not clear why.

Do you have an emacs that is sufficiently healthy so that
you can evaluate things? An emacs -q perhaps with a minimal
init file that will set up org?

If so, go to its *scratch* buffer and try evaluating this:

(org-babel-tangle-file
"/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/fullofcaffeine.org"
"/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/fullofcaffeine.el" "emacs-lisp")

It should return

("/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/fullofcaffeine.el")

Does it? Does the file

  /Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/fullofcaffeine.el

exist?
