Infinite LUA Error

[Jesu]

I've just updated to the Beta version and I'm not having much luck. As soon as I login I receive 4 LUA errors, one of which has an ever growing number of errors being reported until a window pops up asking to close all addons. I've tried it several times with little luck. I've disabled all other addons and still no luck.

However, I have noticed that logging out then back in sometimes works. Any ideas? This new version of Carbonite is virtually useless if I can't fix this problem.

I need at least the first line of the first error that says:
Message: ..\AddOns\Carbonite\Carbonite.lua line xxx:

The message may be formatted different if you have addons that show errors, but the line number of the error is the main thing I need.

I am working through the errors as reported. 3 fixed in the last few hours.

Have you tried it with all other addons disabled, since there are reports of older version addons conflicting with Carbonite like Auctioneer?

The first one reads like this:

Also, the quest tracker lost its connection with the stock quest tracker and is not showing me running totals of what objectives I have met. It only refreshes when I turn a quest in. Restarting WoW (and therefore reloading Carbonite) does not fix it.

i'm having the same problem with this version of the beta. you may notice a drop in your fps as well, i know i did & still do.

The reason you are noticing a drop in your frame rates is because you are having the same error repeating itself in the background.

Mechrior please create a new thread for your issue as it is a different bug please add a note in the title of thread referanceing the "Carbonite.lua:6433: bad argument #1 to 'strfind' (string expected, got nil)"

As your bug is a different one then the OP, it is best practice to create a new thread, please. When you do so also remove the errant post.

On a somewhat related not, after my questtracker started being wonky, I completed a quest and it's spamming my chat with "Quest: Completed" about 40 times a second.

No lua errors, though.
