I get Symbol's value as variable is void: github when I have the following in my .emacs file (the error comes from the last expression):
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("MELPA Stable" . "http://stable.melpa.org/packages/") t)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("gnu" . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/") t )
(package-initialize)
(package-refresh-contents)
(package-install 'flycheck)
(global-flycheck-mode)
(custom-set-variables
;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
'(package-selected-packages (quote (haskell-mode idris-mode flycheck))))
(custom-set-faces
;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.

)
(add-hook 'after-init-hook #'global-flycheck-mode)
(idris-mode
:repo "idris-hackers/idris-mode"
:fetcher github
:files (:defaults "logo-small.png"))
It looks like the last expression in your .emacs file comes from the MELPA recipe for idris-mode. You don't need that in your init file - just type M-x list-packages, find idris-mode in the list, and install it by typing i x. After that, idris-mode will be available every time you start Emacs.

I saw this questionn https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/45056/how-do-i-install-the-evil-package but I can't decipher how to use it to help me.
I also have the same issue:
M-x package-install RET evil [No match]
I am following the instruction from here https://evil.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overview.html#installation-via-package-el and it says:
M-x package-refresh-contents
M-x package-install RET evil RET
the first one works fine. The second returns and error.
My emacs file is:

How to fix this?
This doesn't really solve the exact question as asked but at least it install emacs for you:
This worked for me:
Evil
Manual installation worked for me: https://evil.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overview.html#installation-via-package-el
clone evil repo somewhere you know the path, I recommend ~, so run:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil.git
then add these line to your .emacs file in ~:
vim .emacs
add:
(add-to-list 'load-path "path/to/evil")
(require 'evil)
(evil-mode 1)
likely:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/evil")
(require 'evil)
(evil-mode 1)
For me, the issue was that I didn't realize RET indicated return. To be clear, do the following:
M-x
package-install (press "return" or "enter")
evil (press "return" or "enter" again)
That worked.
I'm trying to install icicles in Emacs because I've read it makes for a more clear emacs experience. The problem is, even though I'm loading the Melpa repositories, and Checked melpa for if the package was available (it was) If I try package-install on it, it returns [no match].
I've tried package-refresh-contents to na avail. Please help with this, I could do it manually, but AUGH!
Just for context, here's the contents on my .emacs:

Icicles is no longer distributed on ELPA or MELPA:
NOTE:
Icicles, as well as my other libraries that are on EmacsWiki, used to be obtainable also from MELPA. You may still find some of them there, but they are likely not up-to-date.
As of 2017-10, MELPA has decided to no longer accept Lisp libraries from EmacsWiki. This includes my libraries, even though these libraries are read-only (administrator lock on the wiki pages). Too bad. This means that you must download Icicles and my other libraries only from Emacs Wiki. Sorry about that. I upload Icicles files only to the wiki.

Solved the problem by doing M-x eval-buffer on my .emacs.
I'm fairly new to emacs. In fact I'm learning the editor and trying to setup something that will replicate "go to a file inside the project" feature known from Code::Blocks or certain plugins of notepad++.
'projectile' fulfills this need, and I installed it through MELPA. Package installed properly, as I can start it with M-x projectile-global-mode and C-c p commands are recognized.
However, if I put it into my .emacs file, Emacs starts with an error:
Symbol's function definition is void: projectile-global-mode
Contents of my .emacs file are as follows:
(custom-set-variables
;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
)
(custom-set-faces
;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.

(global-linum-mode 1)
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/") t)
(projectile-global-mode 1)
When I try to (require 'projectile) first, I only end up with another error:
'File error: Cannot open load file, projectile'
I'm using Emacs 24.3.1.
How do I put this on autostart properly?
By default, Emacs initializes packages after evaluated init.el. Hence, in a standard setup, packages are not yet available while init is evaluated.
Use (add-hook 'after-init-hook #'projectile-global-mode) to enable Projectile only after packages are initialized, or explicitly initialize packages at the beginning of your init.el with the following code:
(require 'package)
(setq package-enable-at-startup nil) ; To avoid initializing twice
(package-initialize)
You have to load projectile first, e.g. by using this:
(require 'projectile)
(projectile-global-mode)
you can add
'(initial-major-mode (quote projectile-global-mode))
to your .emacs(or init.el or whatever your file is called) file in the custom-set-variable section.
Alternatively, in newer versions of emacs, the menu Options | Customize Emacs | Specific Option you can type 'initial-major-mode' and this will take you to an interface where emacs can customize itself with that setting. just remember to apply and save
I have emacs24 installed on windows in C:\Program Files(x64) and python2.7 under C:\Python27
I've tried to install python mode to send commands to the interpreter from emacs. My init.el file in Users/myname/.emacs.d:

I've put the python mode files in: C:\Users\myname\.emacs.d\python-mode.el-6.1.1
An interactive python session can be formed in a buffer by choosing the PyShell > Default Intepreter option in the menu, but if I open a .py file and try to run a hellow world like by going to the menu PyExec > Execute Statement I get errors of this nature:
Opening output file: no such file or directory, c:/Users/Ben/AppData/Local/Temp/C-/Python27/python.exe-705218Y.py
How can I set up so I can edit python code and then send lines to the python interpreter in another buffer without this error?
You are using setq and custom-set-variables to set py-shell-name. If I remember correctly, custom-set-variables does not work if you use setq before it. Also, you need to escape backslash when you write it in string literals. Using one of the following should solve your problem.
To use setq, fix backslashes:
(setq py-install-directory "~/.emacs.d/python-mode.el-6.1.1")
(add-to-list 'load-path py-install-directory)
(require 'python-mode)
(setq py-shell-name "C:\\Python27\\python.exe")
To use custom-set-variables, just remove setq:
(setq py-install-directory "~/.emacs.d/python-mode.el-6.1.1")
(add-to-list 'load-path py-install-directory)
(require 'python-mode)
(custom-set-variables
;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
'(py-shell-name "C:\\Python27\\python.exe"))
(custom-set-faces

I want to develop java in emacs. I install ecb, jde and auto-complete extensions. Each one works well without starting others. But when i want to use them together, some problem happened.
auto-complete-mode doesn't auto start with jde, I need to start it by M-x auto-complete-mode. If without jde, auto-complete-mode will auto start
When I manually start the auto-complete-mode in jde, the auto complete is not work well. It just auto complete the word that is appeared.

The version info is :
emacs : 24.1
auto complete : 1.3.1
ecb : 2.40
cedet : 1.1
elib : 1.0
jdee : 2.4.0.1
To auto-start auto-complete-mode with jde-mode, you need to add jde-mode to ac-modes:
(push 'jde-mode ac-modes)
Then you need to add a JDEE-specific source to ac-sources. I'm not sure of the extent of JDEE integration with Semantic, you may be able to use the pre-defined source for it:
(add-hook 'jde-mode-hook (lambda () (push 'ac-source-semantic ac-sources)))
If not, you may need to define a specialized source with ac-define-source. See auto-complete-config.el for examples.
