File Mode Specification Error (void-function Format-message)
and flymake simply not working then. Starting with --init-debug does not improve anythong. Any idea how to debug the cause of problem ? emacs share|improve this question asked Nov 23 '11 at 9:09 Dfr 1,68832744 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 3 down vote accepted This general error is thrown when a Lisp function actually expects a string argument but receives a nil. Try setting (setq debug-on-error t) at the top of your .emacs to get file mode specification error wrong number of arguments a stack-trace showing you which string is nil. In case the error is caused by FlyMake settings in your .emacs: here is a good introduction. The deeper reason for wrong-type-argument exceptions is that Lisp functions have no prototypes and cannot rely on the interpreter; they're always defined and hence need to parse their arguments on their own. The Emacs Lisp interpreter itself does not perform type checking on the actual arguments passed to functions when they are called. [...] It is therefore up to the individual function to test whether each actual argument belongs to a type that the function can use. For more information see Type Predicates in the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual. share|improve this answer answered Nov 23 '11 at 11:15 Andreas Spindler 3,19612529 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.

I was using my own custom c# checker but I've disabled it for this situation. I'm running on OSX 10.10. I installed omnisharp from melpa (20141122.2230) and went through the setup. Straight after the install, I could launch a server with omnisharp-start-omnisharp-server and navigate around with the omnisharp commands. Later, after an emacs session restart, I https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-emacs/issues/129 opened a .cs file in a buffer. I got the above error immediately. I tried a few other things, like (require 'omnisharp) in my init.el, but that produced the same error at load time. It's probably something obvious. Any ideas? tenpn commented Nov 28, 2014 This happens even if I expunge all trace of flycheck from my init.el and restart. It may also be related to this Q I asked on emacs.se, about why omnisharp can't see my helm install: http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/3950/omnisharp-not-making-helm-integrations-available -- I wasn't sure if that was helm or omni, so didn't want to make it an Issue here. OmniSharp member sp3ctum commented Nov 28, 2014 Hi, never ran into that. csharp-omnisharp-curl is the name for the syntax checker. It finds e.g. missing colons or parentheses or anything weird like that. My guess is something is trying to access that but it's not defined yet. Try setting debug-on-error to t and see if you can get a stacktrace from emacs. tenpn commented Nov 28, 2014 Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable csharp-omnisharp-curl) byte-code("��\305\n\306\307\310\311\312\313 \314\"!!\315\316 \317\320\321\322\323\324
