[ERROR] IndexDefect: index 3 not in 0 .. 2

[madorian]

Any way to have a better way of understanding why it can't parse the file?

This error is not very helpful

 [ERROR] IndexDefect: index 3 not in 0 .. 2

Can you please post a reproducible example?

[madorian]

Well, that's a problem, cause it's my 500 line org-mode file and it contains some secrets, but can't the program say anything about where it has problems, like what line number, etc?

I have to bisect the file?

[kaushalmodi]

I should be able to output the line number of the Org file when that unhandled exception happens, but I don't have that mechanism in place. When I fix this, I'll look into adding that feature.

That's the easiest way. Keep on commenting out your file in half until you stop getting that exception. Then uncomment in halves again until you reproduce this exception.

Any idea what this could be?;)
