if you are worried that you don't have the correct version of Org-mode

installed you can check the output of the `org-version' function. Mine

reads



"Org-mode version 7.4 (release_7.4.510.g1e35)"



RIght - I was worried that I had possibly changed a lisp file that could be causing the error, so I wanted a fresh copy.

yes, these are normal compiler warnings which are generally cleaned up

before releases but shouldn't have any negative impact on the behavior

of Org-mode



Ok, good to know.

One thing to note here, is that for your emacs-lisp block to work on

export, you need to change this



#+begin_src emacs-lisp :exports both

(buffer-file-name)

#+end_src



to this



#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var file-name=(buffer-file-name) :exports both

file-name

#+end_src



because only header arguments are guaranteed to be evaluated in the

original org-mode buffer during export.



Again, thanks for pointing this out earlier. I hadn't changed it for the example, because the error was not associated with whether or not the actual =emacs-lisp= code returned anything meaningful.



That said I was able to export your example file (without the change

above) to html. When exporting to latex I ran into an issue, the

problem here is that the LaTeX exporter *requires* at least one

headline. It explicitly export the pre-first-headline and

post-first-headline portions of the Org-mode buffer separately. When

there is no headline, and the buffer contains code blocks, then they are

exported *twice*, which causes the error you mentioned, because after

the first pass of the code-block export, the results in the file are not

valid for another pass of the exporter.



If you place a "* " before the "Let's start this..." line, then the

errors should disappear.



Hope this helps.

That fixed it! Sorry for the trouble for something that seems so minor! Thanks again.
