I have the same, except for the first line. I don’t have that directory and when I try and > locate “org-mode/lisp” I get no hits. I’ve tried the same setup on my laptop (ubuntu) as opposed to my work machine (fedora ) and I get the same problem. Stange.

Not to worry, I’m happy enough cause I can just refresh the .tex file and all is good. Often my emacs session will stay open for days anyway.

Regards and once again thanks for your time,

Rob


(add-to-list 'load-path "~/site-lisp/org-mode/lisp")
(require 'org-install)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org\\'" . org-mode))


When I first open the org file I get the
File mode specification error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
error and “C-c )” is described as undefined. If I then export to latex “C-c C-e l”, I can then use the reftex functionality within the org file. Excellent.

But if I close down the org file and reopen the C-c ) fails again until I re-export to latex.

So I can get the functionality but I feel this is not correct behaviour.

Mario; excellent blog. I want to get the same functionality working, but am stuck.
I’ve only just discovered org-mode in the last few weeks and am now drafting my first paper using org-mode and the export to tex feature, but I can’t get this org-mode reftex integration to work. I have a similar problem to Fabrice.
reftex is working fine in tex mode, I have the following in my .emacs

(require ‘tex-mode)
;;; Toggle auto-fill-function on
(toggle-text-mode-auto-fill)
;;; switches on reftex when entering tex-mode.
(add-hook ‘tex-mode-hook ‘reftex-mode)
;; master bibliography
(setq reftex-default-bibliography ‘(”/home/rob/phd/library/biblio”))

and org mode is successfully exporting to latex but when I open the org file using your code snippet in my .emacs file
(defun org-mode-reftex-setup ()
(load-library “reftex”)
(and (buffer-file-name)
(file-exists-p (buffer-file-name))
(reftex-parse-all))
(define-key org-mode-map (kbd “C-c )”) ‘reftex-citation)
)
(add-hook ‘org-mode-hook ‘org-mode-reftex-setup)

I always get the File mode specification error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil) error. My *messages* buffer reports,

Loading reftex…done
File mode specification error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)

I’ve tried exporting to latex then re-opening the .org file but I still get the same error. I’ve tried all the different variants mentioned in the links but always end up with the same error. Has anyone any ideas what’s going on? Can anyone help?

Regards

Rob
