Using wdired to change file name, got error message. #835

Closed kevinfis closed 1 year ago

kevinfis commented 1 year ago

Hello, I tried using C-x C-q to call wdired to change file name in dired buffer, and emacs showed error message: "apply: Symbol’s function definition is void: dired-isearch-search-filenames"

I found if i comment out this line will let wdired working: (require 'init-site-lisp) ;; Must come before elpa, as it may provide package.elafter test

But i can't see what cause this in init-site-lisp. Could anyone can reproduce this situation?

My test procedure: emacs -q load-file init.el in emacs.d or any filder, using C-x C-q or M-x wdired-change-to-wdired-mode, dired-toggle-read-only it can't into wdired mode and showed error message.

in emacs -q , wdired working fine.

system: emacs 29.06 Linux 6.1.9-arch1-1

Do you have anything in your site-lisp folder then?

kevinfis commented 1 year ago

Yes, i have put some folder and file from github in site-lisp folder, but i tested also fresh copy from github that only one file README in it. i got error message when i used C-x C-q in dired buffer after startup,

Maybe (require 'init-site-lisp) not cause the situation, because if loaded it with comment out it , then manually eval after startup, i only saw these text below in message buffer, but C-x C-q can function well:

Evaluating... Company backend ’company-eclim’ could not be initialized: Symbol’s function definition is void: company-eclim

@purcell If you don't reproduce this situation, i suggest let me hold this issue, because wdired is working normally suddenly in my computer, but i don't know what cause my emacs became normal unknowingly, i just test and restart emacs a lot times. so let me tried more time in the future.

update: Sorry, I found i could mixed config file, when you asked if there are files in my site-lisp folder, after recheck my actions previously. so after remove all files and folders, wdired can working!

Hi, Purcell, i closed this issue, because i found the reason is not because of your config file after tested my files in site-lisp folder.

i found If i changed this file dired-aux.el even to dired-auw.el, wdired will work well, but i don't know why this file dired-aux.el(from emacswiki) will make wdired fail, it is just a normal char x, code 0x78.

Thanks for your hint, let me can found the strange file!

Best regards

Kevin
