Initial sync is failing, something about a folder name

[mranders]

I was just trying to do the org-toodledo-initialize, and it quit with an error, I see two TODO's. Any idea how to figure out what it is complaining about?

Hmmm, I apparently only had a "Folder" for one task, and once I removed that, it synced fine.

Not the most intuitive, but perhaps the Folder handling could be improved?

Hmm... it looks like it was trying to create a folder on the server and
that call failed. Can I ask, were you initializing with tasks already
in the org-mode buffer, or was the org-mode buffer empty and it was
just importing tasks from toodledo.com?

I get that error when I try to create a folder with an empty name via
the manual call:

(org-toodledo-folder-to-id "")

In the tasks that you have in the buffer, can you open the properties
drawer of each task (put the cursor on the ":PROPERTIES:" line in the
task and hit tab) -- do you see a line with ":FOLDER:" in it? If so,
what is value? And what do you get back when you do:

M-x eval-expression (org-entry-get nil "FOLDER")

Finally -- can you tell me what version of emacs and org you are using:

M-x emacs-version
M-x org-version

Let's see if any of that helps -- if not I'll have to put some debug
statements in the code to figure out what's going on!

Thanks

Just importing tasks from toodledo.com. I am a newbie when it comes to
org-mode, but I live in emacs quite a bit. I thought if perhaps I brought
ToodleDo into my emacs lifestyle then I could make better use GTD and
ToodleDo. And then I might be able to have a useful list of things I need
to accomplish synced with my phone.

Since I was able to sync the tasks once I removed the only Folder in
ToodleDo, I just moved the single task back into the only folder "Auto" and
the org-toodledo interface doesn't capture it correctly. It finds the
folder on the server, but it calls the folder the empty string.

Perhaps this gives you some clues to go on.

This is good info! I was able to reproduce it with your version of
org-mode. There appear to be 2 problems, one not getting/setting the
Folder properly on import, and then later returning "" instead of nil
when the folder is empty (an org-mode change...)

Both should be easy enough to fix...I'll get back to you!
