Removing old name /tmp/docview1000 warning

Question

When starting emacs I get the following warning:

Warning (initialization): an error occurred while loading '/home/jamesbond/.emacs':

File error: Removing old name, no such file or directory, /tmp/docview1000

Using --debug-init returns:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "Removing old name" "no such file or directory" "/tmp/docview1000")
  delete-file("/tmp/docview1000" nil)
  dired-delete-file("/tmp/docview1000" always)

Emacs is also not behaving according to some of my settings anymore. Maybe they are not reached due to the error? How can I solve this issue?

Answer 1

I solved the issue by commenting the line

(doc-view-clear-cache)

in my settings.
