[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]

From: Antero Mejr <mail <at> antr.me>

Subject: [BUG] 31.0.50; org-babel-execute-src-block: Wrong type argument:
 integer-or-marker-p, nil
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2025 03:31:17 +0000

When exporting this Org buffer with org-html-export-to-html:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :exports results
  (org-table-convert-region
   (point)
   (+ (point) (cadr (insert-file-contents "my-table.csv"))))
#+end_src

The export operation fails with a type error:

org-babel-execute-src-block: Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil

The expected behavior is that the converted table will be inserted into
the document and exported by the backend.

While trying to debug this, I noticed that when
org-babel-execute-src-block is executed with the cursor inside the
#+begin_src block, the snippet runs and inserts the text content as
expected. However, when org-babel-execute-src-block is run with the
cursor just before the #+begin_src block, the same type error occurs.
That was also unexpected.

What can we do to avoid such confusion?

Thanks, done.  We can reopen if it turns out to be an Emacs core bug.
