org mode refile error

Since some time (but I didn't change anything in .emacs), I have some errors with emacs's behaviour :

  • Remember mode will not kill the temporary buffer on "Ctl-C Ctl-C"
  • Orgmode will not refile any entry

Both operations complain with error "Not bookmark format"

I restored an old .emacs to make sure that I didn't mess it up but the error persists.

Where can I investigate to find out the problem ?

I have Emacs 24.2.1 since end of august.

The built in orgmode version is 7.8.11 (I see 7.9.2 is out ...)

Solution

  • I filed a bug to the emacs team and they found out that the error comes from a corrupted bookmark file.

    I removed my ~/.emacs.d/bookmark file (it was empty) and everything is fine now.
