That’s really bizarre. What’s the value of sage-command? You set it to the right thing in your .emacs, but maybe it’s being set somewhere else.
Does M-: (sage-create-new-sage nil) RET work correctly? How about M-: (sage-create-new-sage "/home/zach/sage-6.6-x86_64-Linux/sage") RET Thanks for your patience. Perhaps something in byte-compilation went wrong. Reinstalling might fix it if you’re eager to get back to work (which I assume you are). Just running sage -f sage_mode should reinstall everything cleanly. -Ivan On May 13, 2015, at 8:26 AM, Zach Elgood <zachelg...@gmail.com> wrote: Sage-version: 6.6; emacs-version: 24.3.1 (apparently I was wrong about the version), sage-mode: 0.14.
