Document Classes ⇒ Error moderncv : Missing \begin{document}

[Mestejoan]

Hy,
I try to make my CV with latex and I use the moderncv class.
I have a compilation error and, in spite of many search on the internet, I don't find a solution.
I am using emacs as text editor.

Here, the code:

Thanks for your help!!!

Welcome to the forum!

Because of the error message saying \moderncvtheme is undefined, I think your moderncv version is too old and you need to update it.

Then there are small syntax errors.
For example, I added an opening brace before the itemize environment, and commented a cventry out. Check that it runs by clicking "Open in writeLaTeX".
