I can only confirm that there's no problem in Emacs 24.3.1 (from the Ubuntu PPA).

On the org side, I'd check whether org-wl is loading properly. Check the variable org-store-link-functions. It should include 'org-wl-store-link. If it doesn't, then org will fail to find the external link, and fall through the cases into the error message.

~~
org-store-link-functions is a variable defined in `org.el'.
Its value is
(org-w3m-store-link org-wl-store-link org-vm-store-link org-rmail-store-link org-mhe-store-link org-mew-store-link org-irc-store-link org-info-store-link org-gnus-store-link org-docview-store-link org-bibtex-store-link org-bbdb-store-link)

PS I'm not a super-hardcore orgmode hacker, just a clever reader of source code. More detailed help may require intervention from the org list. ;)
