getting nowhere #151

Closed ghost closed 4 years ago

ghost commented 9 years ago

I'm not sure if this project is still alive but nothing seems to work.

I installed from elpa and got nothing workable.

I checked out from git and followed instructions. From sample.org running M-x o-blog-publish yielded: eieio-defclass: Given parent class ob:backend is not a class

I tried following the instructions on http://renard.github.io/o-blog/bug-report.html Emacs ended up in the scratch buffer and Messages was: command-line-1: Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, .emacs.d/o-blog/sample-init.el

Please advise.

Emacs 24.5.1 Org 8.2.10

I opted to clone the git repository directly into .emacs.d and adding the following to init.el:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/o-blog/lisp")
(require 'o-blog)

Then everything worked. Do you might want to try this?

Thanks cviebig, adding the /lisp to the path did change it's behavior. Now the error is: progn: Opening input file: No such file or directory, /home/jay/.emacs.d/o-blog/Makefile and there is indeed a reference to a Makefile in the sample.org file which is not present. I'll assume it was an oversight by whoever wrote the sample.

But at least it didn't fail like before. I think I will proceed to try to generate my own file and see where that gets me. Thanks again for the tip.

@jtgd Weird. No, I did not need to run make. Did you install pandoc? see here. Also checkout the v2.6 branch. The most recent code is not in master.

cviebig commented 9 years ago

@jtgd Also install htmlize (as in #145) package if you have not already.

I also have this problem. Frankly it seems this project was abandoned.

drtutut commented 9 years ago

emacs 24.3.1, org-mode 8.3.1, cloned git repository of o-blog and switched to branch 2.6

I face the same problems. It seems that the examples are not up to date with the version (at least the org-mode ones). When I try to publish the sample org file, emacs complains : unable to create link "Creating a blog", but as no output is generated, I can hardly track down the problem.

I also tried to generate a minimal org-mode file. The result is visually bad as the styles are not copied in the publishing directory, although I have set #+TEMPLATE_DIR: and #+STYLE_DIR:

All of this makes me thinks that the developer choose to concentrate on markdown format.

@drtutut This is my example project that I created at the time when I was trying out o-blog: https://github.com/cviebig/o-blog-example I suppose this also does not work?

shrysr commented 8 years ago

Tried using the blog example above. I got the base site output - but the blog itself does not get generated. I've tried using all the versions..
