I'm running org-mode 8.3beta from org-plus-contrib in melpa. I must have missed something obvious cause I could never get async export working.
Here is what I do: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- emacs -Q (require 'package) (package-initialize) ;; since org is installed by package --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- create a test.org file with only --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * First Heading * Second Heading --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- run --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- C-c C-a ;; in the export dispatcher l p --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I get: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Initializing asynchronous export process org-export-to-file: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- the synchronous export works fine. If I run emacs with my regular config files, I get: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Initializing asynchronous export process Process 'org-export-process' exited abnormally --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- different error message but still not ok. What could possibly go wrong ? Julien.
