Strange Error in Chat

Uhm, after working on my UI I keep getting spammed with these errors in my chat frame while in instances and fighting something.

I can't seem to isolate the issue, and it didn't show up while I was fighting a target dummy.



Any insight? D:

EDIT: Here's a list of addons, http://img805.imageshack.us/img805/6310/addonsc.jpg
EDIT2: Ok, after beating things up in RFC, it's coming from my target castbar, in instances. So, it's Gnosis. Now to figure out WHY.

EDIT3: Uhm.. it's the castbar of caelNameplates o_O le sigh

  1. Search in your addons folder for files containing the text "wrong size".
  2. Read the surrounding code to identify the problem.
  3. If you can't figure it out from reading the code, post the code here.

If you don't have anything that can search inside files, grepWin is a free tool available on the TortoiseSVN site.

It was indeed the castbar of caelnameplates. I ended up just switching addons. The thing is, I copied the folders over from my old UI and I had never gotten errors with it before.

You probably had the option to show errors turned off.

Cairenn is right in the general case however in this particular one the text you got is not an error.

It's some debug prints that the author of caelNameplates forgot to disable before packaging the addon for release.

It prints some values to the local chatframe that are not what they should be so he could debug some unexpected behavior.

It would show up regardless of having show errors checked in the game options or not.

You can open caelNameplates.lua in a text editor and comment out the 2 print() statements that output the debug information.
