Running org-capture crashes my Emacs (both 24.3 and 24.4 for Linux).

This thread reports the problem is due to cdlatex not being installed. But installing it does not solve the problem on my computer.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

  • Have you tried explicitly uninstalling it? There may be some old byte-compiled files lying around that are messing things up. Commented Dec 20, 2014 at 4:34
  • Have you tried a bare-bones capture-templates setup in case something in your setting is causing the issue -- perhaps try just one simple entry in the capture-templates variable? Try also just one org-agenda-files instead of many. Reduce your setup to a bare minimum. Commented Dec 20, 2014 at 6:59
  • Please update with M-x org-version. Also, use a minimal setup (start Emacs with emacs -Q and load only org-mode and org-capture) and report if you still have the crashing problem. Commented Dec 20, 2014 at 16:56

The problem was a conflict with the auto-capitalize mode.
