Previews sometimes fail in indirect buffers (org-element related) #41

Open karthink opened 2 days ago

karthink commented 2 days ago

Due to some issues with org-element or org-element caching that I'm having trouble reproducing, latex previews sometimes fail in indirect Org buffers. I'm keeping an eye for a deterministic, reproducible test case while I work, but it would be good to identify the cause before we merge.

I didn't record the org-element-cache error, but will update this when it next happens.

I encountered it just minutes after I opened this topic. The error occurred when I pasted a LaTeX environment into an indirect Org buffer and org-latex-preview-auto-mode was turned on, so it tried to produce a preview. Unfortunately no backtrace was generated for org-element-cache:

⛔ Warning (org-element): org-element--cache: Org parser error in periodic_pdes.org::TODO Solving the wave equation::69236. Resetting.
 The error was: (error "org-element: Parsing aborted by user.  Cache has been cleared.
If you observe Emacs hangs frequently, please report this to Org mode mailing list (M-x org-submit-bug-report)")
 Backtrace:
nil
 Please report this to Org mode mailing list (M-x org-submit-bug-report).

Emacs locked up so I had to quit (C-g) multiple times.

Thanks. I remember that these backtraces are very large. Do I need to do something else to make the backtrace readable and not full of calls to inscrutable compiled functions, for instance?
