Dear list,
I am a bit confused about what I have to use the new Beamer
exporter. I have customized the org-export-backends variable to include
the Beamer exporter, and now it shows as an option when I do C-c C-e. I
have also created a toy org file:
----start org file------------------
#+TITLE: Example Presentation
#+AUTHOR: Julian Burgos
* This is a structural section
** Frame 1
This is frame 1
** Frame 2
This is frame 2
----end org file------------------
If I try to use any of the Beamer export commands, I get an "Wrong type
argument: stringnp, nil" error.
If I check the *Messages* buffer, these are the messages generated after
trying to export:
Debug (ox-odt): Searching for OpenDocument styles files...
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/styles/... [2 times]
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /home/julian/.emacs.d/etc/styles/...
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /home/julian/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20130514/etc/styles/...
Debug (ox-odt): Using styles under /home/julian/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20130514/etc/styles/
Debug (ox-odt): Searching for OpenDocument schema files...
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/schema/... [2 times]
Debug (ox-odt): No OpenDocument schema files installed
org-beamer--normalize-argument: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
On the other hand, if I add
#+LaTeX_CLASS: beamer
to the org file and use the "non-beamer" latex export commands, I get
the presentation in beamer with no problems, the old fashion way. What
I am doing wrong?
Many thanks,
Julian

Your toy.org file works just fine for me, so long as I add the line
#+options: h:2
so that second level headlines are used to define frames.
Can you provide a debug trace for your error?

Thanks Eric, but I solved the issue already. I had some errors in my
.emacs file (a mixture of settings for the old and new exporter).

Been there, done that :-)
Glad you got it sorted.
