Groupie/GroupBrowser.lua:740: attempt to index field '_categoryActivities' (a nil value)
LasterOfDesaster opened this issue · 5 comments
I have Groupie installed but I rarely use it cause for several weeks or even months now it does not open the Groupie window but instead throws the error
1x Groupie/GroupBrowser.lua:740: attempt to index field '_categoryActivities' (a nil value)
in BugGrabber addon. Installing different versions from Curseforge does not resolve the issue. I am using english language client if that is important.
The full stacktrace:

After Blizzard put RDF in the game, the module needs a complete rewrite.
I'm not using it as much nowadays so haven't had the motivation.
If you want it for the chat parsing capabilities you could probably comment out the GroupBrowser.lua module in the .toc and it should load without errors.
ie open Groupie.toc in a text editor and put a hash in front like this
#GroupBrowser.lua
No actually it needs a couple more edits in core.lua (just tested)
core.lua line 1132 make it look like this
local GroupieGroupBrowser = Groupie:GetModule("GroupieGroupBrowser",true)same for line 3224
And it should let you comment out or delete the GroupBrowser.lua reference from the .toc so addon works as a chat parser.
Hi @Road-block!
Finally had time to test your suggestions. Sadly I have to say there did not solve my problem bc now I get a error message
Groupie/Core.lua:1133: attempt to index upvalue 'GroupieFrame' (a nil value)
cause the variable 'GroupieGroupBrowser' isn't used later and 'GroupieFrame' is never created.
When I swap out the variablename 'GroupieGroupBrowser' for 'GroupieFrame' I get this error
Groupie/Core.lua:1133: attempt to call method 'Hide' (a nil value)
Sidenote: You listed line 3224 as the second place where I have to make the same adjustment. This line is responsible for creating the string version of the addon version. I scrolled around and found line 3195 which would fit the context more
I don't think you're editing the latest files. (the code I see in your screenshots is at the wrong places anyway, so there's a mismatch somewhere)
I'll try to find a little time to push the edits to the repo here so you can download an alpha.
They absolutely work if applied correctly. By work I mean remove the broken Blizzard GroupBrowser integration so Groupie can work as a chat parser collecting ads from /lookingforgroup channel etc.
New alpha available here: https://github.com/Gogo1951/Groupie/releases/tag/1.74-alpha
