Re: Stable 9.5: invalid function (date date)

[Tim Loderhose]

Hi,

I am also getting this error. It's fixable only by re-installing org from a emacs -q, I assumed because files on the agenda file list are visited before org is fully installed?

Unfortunately, this also occurs with a fresh install of Emacs (re-installing all packages), but I'm not sure why. I'd assumed it's because of the agenda file list, but that doesn't exist at that point.

I will try these days to get a minimal config to reproduce the issue, and will respond again.

Best,

Tim

Hello Ihor.

This morning the install instructions on orgmode.org had changed from
yesterday: they now pointed to the manual, which contains the text

Important: You need to do this in a session where no ‘.org’ file has
been visited, i.e., where no Org built-in function have been
loaded. Otherwise autoload Org functions will mess up the installation.

I reinstalled from "emacs -q", and my error disappeared. So thank you
very much.

Have fun and stay safe.
