org-ref-insert-cite-link fails with "concat: Wrong type argument: sequencep, 67"

[icymist]

Hello there,

I am using org-ref both on my Mac and on a Linux Desktop. While on the Mac org-ref works as expected, on the linux desktop it is not the case.

First, the key "C-c ]" is not getting defined to org-ref-insert-cite-link.

Second, if I try to do M-x org-ref-insert-cite-link, it fails with the message "concat: Wrong type argument: sequencep, 67"

I am using Emacs 24.2.1 with built-in org.

I am pretty new to emacs and org-mode, but would like to use the wonderful org-ref in my research workflow. Would be great if this is fixed and let me know if you need any more debugging output.

The that I was trying to include ends with an integer (like bibkey12).

this is definitely not enough information to figure much out. what version is the builtin org? you need an org8+ version. I use one from the orgmode elpa. http://orgmode.org/elpa.html

Org: 8.2.8 (8.2.8-elpaplus org-plus-contrib-20141006)

The problem seems to have been with Emacs.

It works with version 24.3 that I compiled myself.

Thanks for the code. It's awesome.

No problem. Glad it works!
